Hi Verner, what do you really mean by "screen shots are sent to the translator"?
As a (English into French) translator, I have never had to translate any screen shot strictly speaking. I usually translate software strings that developers then integrate into the (in my case, French version of) the soft. Then I capture screenshots in the right language to place them in my doc. In your case it would be too time-consuming of course, you would not want to capture 1000 screenshots x 6 languages... However, if the translators translate straight into Photoshop or Illustrator, maybe they do not set the image settings as you do (in terms of dpi, size, format, etc.), which may cause problems.
