Abstract

The technology and tools used by technical writers are constantly changing and evolving. One tool specifically has taken the spotlight in recent years to become one of the most adopted technical writing tools—the Darwin Information Typing Architecture (DITA). To gauge the usefulness and potential lifespan of DITA as a tool technical writers rely on, a survey of technical writing professionals who utilize DITA in their work was conducted asking for their opinions and thoughts regarding DITA and its lifespan as a tool. This paper explores how DITA has become an integral tool to the technical writing world and discusses what professionals and educators alike can expect of its future.
