Cheers Sophie At least I now know how to install pootle. Now to remove it. Come to think of it, it was OmegaT that I used before. So this week I will be setting this up on my computer. Thanks for the links! I am also thinking that working with earlier versions of the Base Handbook will help me get an idea of what I should be doing. I seem to remember that having some documents in German and their translations in English will help with future translations. But first to read the information in your links...

Other than Italian, anything beyond Google translate is outside my limited linguistic ability. Maybe Sophie could offer you some guidance about using Pootle or an alternative to help you do what you want to achieve.
