Subject:a reference for internationalization From:"Porrello, Leonard" <leonard -dot- porrello -at- COMPAQ -dot- COM> Date:Thu, 6 Aug 1998 10:40:48 -0500
Hi all.
I'm looking for a reference for internationalization. I have Hoft's book
(1995), and I'm now looking for something more specific. I am
internationalizing documents used by a Japanese audience.
Does anyone out there know where I might get hold of one of the following
texts?:
Berlitz's "TechWriter's Translatability Checklist"
Digital's "Digital Guide to Developing International User Information"
The AECMA's guide to simplified English
Or some other similar source of information
Thanks in advance!
