I need to translate my entire publisher document From
English to Spanish. I am using Publisher 2003. What is
the easiest way to do this?

Help states that it can be done but for some reason it is
not working for me.

Hire a translator
Software-based translators will never do a job anywhere near publishable
quality at this point in time.

In addition to Ed's excellent advice, if you go to Tools > Research, then in
the Research Task Pane change the "All Refernce Books" drop down to
Translation. This will let you do an online translation of sentences and
words.

This is the part that I am not understanding. I may not
have something loaded. I have tried by sentence and by
word. But I don't have the option to change the "all
reference books" to translation.

I understand Ed's suggestion to hire it out...but I would
also like to know how to do correctly in publisher. It
works great in Word 2002. Haven't used yet in 2003.

At the bottom of the Research Task Pane is a feature that says "Research
options...". Click on that and make sure Translation is checked off.

Thanks!!!

I think I have it. It's not as "easy" as Word but after
some playing I think I'll figure it out.

Thanks Again.
