I remember writing an information manual for an international company; the 
approach was to write the initial document in U.S. English, then add a section 
named Safety Information, immediately following the TOC. The safety information 
section began with U.S. English verbiage, then repeated in every target foreign 
language. Keep in mind, this time frame was the early 90's. Regards.

Subject: [EXTERNAL] [Framers] cTUVus documentation

My company just got cTUVus certification for North America. My regulatory guy 
is telling me we need to include French warning/caution/danger text as well as 
include some French text translation in our doc set.

We have no Canadian customers, and none in the pipeline, so our doc would not 
be exported to Canada, which has the bi-lingual/French requirement.

He was not able to answer the question I asked, if we could do two versions, a 
US English and a translated French for shipment to Canadian customers if and 
when it is required, and be in compliance with the standard.

Anyone been there and solved the problem?

Thanks,
Art
