Re: Crazy situation: Customer responsible for translation

[wanda <wanda -dot- jane -at- gmail -dot- com>]

Trina,
Are your customers end-users or resellers?
There isn't much in your note to go from. I have only encountered 
something like this once before, for a database product. We provided 
translations in a range of languages and made the content available as a 
text file to customers who wished to translate in unsupported languages. 
Generally, these customers were resellers and were both technically able 
and motivated to do a good job.
It's true that handing over Frame files may not be the best way to 
transmit the original content.
