The translator will just translate the text in between the colored tags, and then you can convert back into Japanese with S-Tagger. I did that with Japanese many years ago. The learning curve can be a bit tricky, bit is really rather straight-forward once you get used to it. You would need to install Japanese fonts as well. The problem is that Trados does not sell this as a standalone program anymore, so you would have to purchase the whole Trados package. Therefore is seems better that the translation agency who probably already has a Trados license does the S-Tagger work as well.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'>Regards,<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'>Ragnar Hanas<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'>Uddevalla Hospita,<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'>Sweden<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><div><div style='border:none;border-top:solid #B5C4DF 1.0pt;padding:3.0pt 0cm 0cm 0cm'><p class=MsoNormal><b><span lang=EN-US style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif"'>From:</span></b><span lang=EN-US style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif"'> framers-bounces@lists.frameusers.com [mailto:framers-bounces@lists.frameusers.com] <b>On Behalf Of </b>Stephen O'Brien<br><b>Sent:</b> Friday, June 28, 2013 4:16 PM<br><b>To:</b> Frame Users (framers@lists.frameusers.com)<br><b>Subject:</b> Translating FM files into Japonese<o:p></o:p></span></p></div></div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>Hi,<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US>We have located a translator in Japan to translate a 300-page training booklet written in English.
