RoboHelp Translation

[Samiksha A.]

Can RoboHelp translate the content from english to other languages? Has this kind of a requirement ever been met? If not, are there any plans of introducing a way to incorporate such a requirement in RoboHelp?

In order, no and I doubt it.

If you have ever tried automated translation tools, they are really only ever a starter and the results need working on. Throw in technical content, and the results are not even that good.

I think the chances of seeing this in an acceptable form are as good as seeing the paperless society that was forecast.

Hi Peter,
I did not trash your reply. I had actually typed a Thank You and later when i wanted to edit the reply i had to struggle with a slow server and therefore couldnt complete my message.
Thanks a lot for your reply Peter. I agree with you. We wouldnt get the desired result even if the matter got translated.
