About Jan Bohman

Experienced technical writer/ technical illustrator with the keywords human perception, good pedagogy and simplicity.Masters S1000D, DITA, Docbook and SE, as well as 3Dvia (SolidWorks Composer) and vector programs such as Adobe illustrator / CorelDraw. Also SolidWorks and some other 3Dcad environments as well as SAP, KOLA (Volvo), Magic (Cytiva), and CANEA ONE (Devyser).WebBase, Cosima Go!, Grips, SID (Arbortext), Skribenta, Oxygen (SDL Tridion), and Paligo are “favorite editors”.The background which as a repairman in heavy industry, gives me great advantages when I describe, illustrate and do e.g. training materials, maintenance instructions, overhaul plans, technical descriptions or regulations.Also experienced in writing copy texts and working with web and apps. And for printed material, here I master the entire printing process: from the printing original with color handling to all other work – associated with the printing process. Used to working with Indesign and several other Adobe applications, designed for photos, layout, pre-press, and video.For the past 7 years or so, I have had assignments in both the medical industry and companies that develop and manufacture diagnostic genetic tests. I am a mechanical engineer at heart and am constantly happy about the extended background and my long experience in describing everything from processes to working methods in the lab, as well as simple maintenance schedules to advanced regulations etc., preferably in combination with good descriptive illustrations. In conclusion, I have a unique breadth as a technical writer. In addition, very long experience.Of course, I work in all documentation assignments for the medical technology sphere in accordance with medical technology regulations and especially ISO 13485 (harmonized MDR and IVDR).I am used to working with projects of different sizes and am always ready to cut in where it is most needed with “my customer” as my focus.
