    More Info about what I need to do.

    I will be converting the FramMaker files into .mif files to sent to translator. I will then convert the translated files back to FrameMaker. I just need to know if FrameMaker will be able to handle the right to left text. Will the text look ok or will it be mirrored?

    A year ago on the tekom conference I was told that Miramo will support publishing of FrameMaker files which are translated into Arabic.

    I do not know, if this solution is now available. And I do not know how complicated or expensive this solution will be.

    I had talked to Corinna Kinchin from Miramo ckinchin@miramo.com and Kapil Verma from Adobe.
