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.

Lauke Sent: Wednesday, 20 October 2004 11:27 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [WSG] Foreign Translations 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? Patrick H.
