> Hi,
>
> A Japanese client wants all our product documentation (2000 pages!!) as
word
> files. He plans to run a tool on these files and convert the content from
> English to Japanese. We are currently using FrameMaker 6.0 to create our
> documents, and deliver the docs to the client in PDF format. I have two
> questions:
>
> 1. Is there a tool that can translate the contents of an FM or PDF file to
> Japanese.
> 2. Is there a tool that can convert an FM book to word without affecting
the
> layouts and text formats.
>
> Looking forward to your helpful suggestions,
>
