We were the first to set up the docDownload concept in the world. What is a docDownload?
A docDownload is a useful template to help create a document.
The word 'template' has taken on special technical meaning in the world of Internet and website development. This is NOT how the word is used by docDownload.
The word 'template' originally meant a metal plate that was cut out for use in the woodworking shop or the factory, which allowed the form of the object that was about to be manufactured to be easily drawn.
In computer science the word 'template' came to mean a document or file having a preset format, used as a starting point for a particular application so that the format does not have to be recreated each time it is used. In the technical writing and academic worlds the word 'template' has traditionally meant a document that has been 'put away for the next time it is needed'; a temporally transferring series of plates or forms. It is a combination of these two meanings that docDownload promotes.
Today the concept of template is well-known as an editable document that retains much of the experience and the effort of the original document; retained because the experience will need to be repeated, but in revised circumstances. The docDownload template may appear to be quite specific but it is designed to address a broad range of uses. It may contain information that is not the same yours and needs to be changed. This information may be offered as an example which explains more fully the role of the document and bring to life the more generic aspects of the document that will not need to be altered.
Technical studies have shown that a well-designed template can save up to 40% of the time needed to prepare a document because it allows the writer to concentrate on the subject matter and not on the communication of ideas.
