Subject:Translatable flowcharts? From:Melanie Albrecht <melanie_albrecht -at- MOLDFLOW -dot- COM> Date:Tue, 10 Aug 1999 01:35:34 -0500
Hi
I am interested in Visio and other programs which can help me create
flowcharts. However, I want to include the flowcharts in a help file which
is translated into four other languages.
Does anyone know if it is possible to
* provide the text only to the translaters?
* embed a flowchart directly into a WinHelp system, or do you need to make
it into a bitmap, then embed that? FWIW, I use RoboHELP.
The flowcharts I want to create will show the different routes users can
take through our software.
Thanks,
Melanie Albrecht
