Automatic translation of text in drawings
Automatic translation of text in drawings
(OP)
I am looking for a way of taking a large number of drawings (AutoCAD2000) and automatically translating the text portions of the drawings from English into another language.
What are my options as far as single drawing processing or batch processing? Is one method better than other? Should I expect to do any additional corrections or adjustments to the text after the processing?
Is commercial software available to do this?
thank you in advance,

It is inexpensive and works better then any other conversion software I've used.
It does plain text and attributes.

search lexicon and download.
Don't use the free shareware though, it is worth the small amount for the full capabilties.
good luck and have a good week-end.

But unlike CADqueen's solution ... my means a LOT of manual work.
But maybe you or someone else might find some use for these.
