Hi Steve,
I've been reading this thread with interest as our documentation (FM)
is going to be translated into German and Japonese starting in
January 2007. The people at the other end are distributors who are
going to have to put together an efficient workflow. You mention in
your comment being able to provide details...I am very interested...
Thanks.

We use translators that can take the FM files and return them as FM files
including any marker and conditional text in the document. If you want
details, please let me know. We have been happy with the results. I
recommend them as they use translators in the destination country rather
than locals from here.
For your information, they use an application called Trados that imports MIF
files.
Best regards,
Steve

We are beginning to have to get our manuals and documentation translated.
What's the best way to set up this workflow.
For example, do we develop in FM, then output to another format (say
RTF,etc), the translators use this format, we get it back, then convert back
with FM?
Sincerely,
Loren
