There is a company in (I believe) Torrance called Crestec, who does a *lot*
of translation for documents and who also operates a Xerox Docutech system
which is great for low-volume printing. I'm not sure if they do any sort of
software localization.
They gave me samples: anyone need an owner's manual in Russian for a
Panasonic VCR? :)
