Who has language options on their web site? Are these pre-translated
options or do you use something like GoogleFish to translate on the fly?

Hi Bryan,
I had gallery guides developed and printed in 7 languages here in St.
Louis (Spanish, Italian, French, German, Chinese, Japanese and Russian).
Our publications department used a translation company in New York. You
might want to contact Kate Weigand at [log in to unmask] as this company
may be able to give you some info regarding your question! Have a great
weekend! Greg

Like many organizations, we're looking at providing orientation in
multiple languages. Also, like many organizations, we're stumbling over
the selection of a Spanish version. Which one, of the many dialects out
there, to select?
What is the process others have used to select which Spanish dialect is
most appropriate? How do you address complaints from other Hispanic
populations.
Thanks.
