A potential doctor client has posed this question, and I don't know if his request is doable and if it is, how to proceed. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated...

He wants to create a generic letter in English with a number of merge fields to send to different individuals. So far, no problem. He then wants to translate the letter into different languages for patients who do not read English. Is there any feature in Writer to accomplish this ( I haven't found anything, but perhaps I've missed it)? Would a 3rd party translation app work? Or would he just need to have the English document translated and create a new document using appropriate characters / font?

Hope the question is clear, because _I_  am confused1

Thanks for any help

There is an extension at http://extensions.services.openoffice.org/project/ootranslator that should work. It is base on the Google Translate system. It as a tool bar item to translate from one language to another. Not sure how good it is as I have not had a chance to try it personally.

Hope this helps.
