[FM Discuss] volunteer to translate to spanish

[anacim]

Hello,

I had written some days ago offering myself for translating as a volunteer
from english to spanish some manuals useful for sugar users .

I was guided by Cherlin and VXV and finished my first translation!!!
http://objavi.flossmanuals.net/books/terminal1-en-2011.02.16-04.40.54.pdf

There are still some things to do to this manual to say it is ready for use
( text translation is ready ).
I need your advice to finish it completely:

1) I want to replace the screen shots that show Terminal Activity running in
english, with new screen shots that show the same but in spanish.
It is fine to do it?  Are there any formats fixed for images?

2) When generating the pdf, I left blank all the isbn options an all that.
I didn t even include my name as translator anywhere.
 ¿What is what I should exactly do when it is 100% ready?
¿Do i sign it somewhere?
¿Where do I see original chapter order to change it before making the pdf?
¿How do I get it web-published for people to use it here at home?

Apart from that i want to
3) congratulate the authors of the english text( I found everything pretty
explained )
4) say I found booki very simple and easy to use
5) i added myself, and the manual , to a group called español and I received
valuable help from Edward Cherlin and VxV.


I would like to finish this completely and start collaborating with Simmons
book about How to Make Your Own Sugar Activities , ( just in chapters that
are still machine translated )

please, let me know how to continue.
Saludos de uruguay
