Abstract :
This paper presents the issues and benefits experienced in the migration from a paper based Technical Publications process to a Multimedia interactive DVD based format. The paper aims to present the benefits of using such a format as a future strategy to replace the paper system. It also attempts to address the financial and time gains should such a format be adopted.
