>Subject: Chinese translation - from Word to Web?

We've been asked to facilitate getting Chinese and Spanish translations of an
extensive online orientation for new students (including a short quiz) on the
college website. Spanish will pose no particular problems, but I'm a bit worried
about the Chinese translation.

I'm hoping that some of you will be able to suggest the best way to plan this.
Here's what we know so far:

*We will be given the Chinese translation of each page of the website in
Microsoft Word format. (traditional characters) (Those that will be doing the
translations, do not make web pages.)
*We will be using Dreamweaver to make the web pages. Unfortunately, those making
the web pages do not know Chinese!
*There are some text boxes  that will need to have Chinese characters appear in
them. (This is a quiz that has the multiple choice responses in a text box. The
user clicks on the correct answers to respond.)

So, (after experimenting with the 3 characters that I know) we're planning to
cut and paste from the word document into the pages in Dreamweaver.

Any  tips, suggestions, warnings? Any and all help will be appreciated. The
