Seriously though, this list is very high volume, but I vaguely recall

Good mail filtering solves any issues one may have with the volume.

how many on the list have used this technique of initially setting all

Did you paste it in exactly as you show below? If so, your sample would not
have worked as you had some odd characters in the rule set. Try this
(whitespace and line breaks are up to the individual as they are ignored
anyway):

Jason,
I worked on a site a while ago that required translation into 14 different
languages. It was an education based portal that contained a lot of text.
One of the issues we encountered was when documents were translated in a

Jason,
haven't got direct experience in doing this, but my gut feeling would be
to encode everything in unicode (UTF-8) as it should cover most
character sets required. You'll need the translated bits of text
provided as unicode as well, to place within your document.
Does that make sense?
depends on what server technology the site is using, of course.
from experience, i would recommend JSP - Java's internal handling of
Unicode and built-in language/locale stuff (resource bundles) is very
effective. all the text is stored in .properties files, one per
language and/or country,
Hi Jason
We had a similar requirement last year. The cost of translating and

I know that SBS (TV) offer a translation service for Websites. I am
assuming (dangerous thing to do) that they could also advise on
character encoding issues.
Might be worth giving them a call.

We've approached On-Call Interpreters in Melbourne and Precision Languages

amount of text so the cost is not prohibitive.

Just to repeat what I was saying before, be really careful with the word
docs. you really need to have one of the translators proof the text on
screen to check for errors including strange characters and word breaks etc.

Although interesting and probably sensitive, pricing is definitely
off-topic.
Discussing how to implement
The charge was based on a per 100 English words basis - and different
languages had different rates - so my quote probably won't help you much
anyway (unless you're asking about the same number of words translated into
the same languages) - but they both emailed back quotes promptly, so maybe

Hi everyone, I'm new to this group and this is my first post.
I'd like to re-iterate a previously mentioned comment as I think it's
extremely important:
it may seem obvious, but in the experience I have had, the word docs

Yeah - thanks Lisa. On-Call Interpreters did mention this specifically in
their quote, that stuff will need to be proof read after. But thanks for the
heads-up anyway.
