Product Workflow
The Outlook Voice Access workflow needed to be summarized for new users. I created the Quick Start guide as a 2 sided color coded workflow diagram. It was design to be a trifold brochure.
Side one shows the voice activated commands, while page two shows the traditional touchtone keypad commands. The document was primarily intended to be printed and handed out during conferences where the product was being introduced. The PDF format enabled us to also post this online.
