You would have seen information brochures, which gives instructions about using the product that you have purchased. But, you may not know about the persons who draft such brochures. It is technical writer who prepares such brochures is called technical writer.
However, the job of a technical writer is not merely confined to writing brochures alone. The subject ‘TECHNICAL WRITING’ has a vast scope and a technical writer has a wider set of responsibilities. A technical writer has to prepare technical documents and user guides for a technical product or process, which is technical in nature.
In our personal life, often, we get indulged in technical communication and technical writing without knowing about it. If you explain your younger brother how to operate a product such as computer, cell phone, an ATM card, it is called technical communication. If you put the same explanation on a paper in a clear and concise language, it becomes technical writing.
