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 English version is found at: http://www.ccsf.edu/Offices/Matriculation/Orientation/ Carol Carol H.
