Abstract
Many of the documents which technical editors create are translated into other languages. Usually, the information is sent to a translation service. In preparing the publications to describe the IBM Core Interchange fonts, the author had the opportunity to work with many languages and alphabets. The author seeks to increase awareness of other cultures and appreciation of foreign languages as she worked with them to create publications
