RE: Translate FrameMaker book to Hebrew/Arabic and convert to online help

2006-08-25 Thread Daniel Osborn 
Hi Winfried,

One of your solutions: 
 Mess around with the registry to get FrameMaker to
 handle right to left languages. Seemed to be only a
 solution for 2 page documents.

Why is this only a solution for 2 page documents? And by mess around
with the registry do you mean set up font substitutions for Hebrew and
Arabic?

Thanks for sharing what you found out,
Daniel

Hi,

Thank you all very much for your suggestions.
Solutions were:

o 2 separate translations:
  - Convert to HTML, get it translated and convert to
HTML Help.
  - Convert to Word, get it translated and create a PDF.
  Thus the online help will still be context sensitive.
  The second translation will cost money but in the era of
  translation memory systems hopefully not to much.

o Convert to XML, get that translated. Then:
  - Convert the XML to HTML via XSLT.
  - Convert the XML to PDF via LaTeX.

o Convert everything to InDesign. However then I don't
  have an online help.

o Mess around with the registry to get FrameMaker to
  handle right to left languages. Seemed to be only a
  solution for 2 page documents.

No-one suggested a converter from Word to HTML Help.

Best regards

Winfried

Translate FrameMaker book to Hebrew/Arabic and convert to online help

2006-08-18 Thread Reng, Winfried Dr. 
Hi,

probably in the next year we have to translate a
FrameMaker book into Hebrew and Arabic and also
convert the translation into an HTML Help. As FM
cannot handle right-to-left languages I plan this:

1 Convert the FM book to Word with Mif2Go.

2 Get the Word file(s) translated.

3 Convert the translated Word file(s) to HTML Help.

Does anybody know a suitable converter? What about
WebWorks ePublisher Pro für Word? Does anyone use
it already? Can it handle Hebrew or Arabic?

What do you do when you have to translate into
Hebrew or Arabic and convert into an online help?

Thank you very much for your help

Winfried
