I would ensure that if I had callouts in the graphics that they were not
embedded in the graphic. I would use text boxes instead.

HTH.

Translation






If you do anything with translation of English documentation to another
language (the software and my manual are going to be translated into
French, Italian, German), this question is for you. Say you find a time
machine and you can take the knowledge you have now and go back in time to
the day on which you were told you would need to translate your manual
(mine is 174 pages) and all of its graphics (mine has 569 links - using
InDesign) to those other languages. What would you tell yourself regarding
capturing graphics in a non-English language?
