Press Release Body = BOULDER, CO -- Feb 23, 2007 -- ENLASO Corporation, a leading
provider of translation and localization solutions, today announced that it will
present a live training course on Thursday, March 29th, 2007, titled \"Converting
Legacy Documents to FrameMaker.\" The course, taught by Maxwell Hoffmann, ENLASO's
Manager of Consulting and Training Solutions, features expert advice on how to
streamline the document development and subsequent translation processes into other
languages by converting Microsoft Word documents into FrameMaker documents.

"Converting a large-scale technical manual from Microsoft Word to FrameMaker can
actually reduce translation project costs by up to 35%," comments Hoffmann. "We have
helped a number of clients convert from PageMaker, Microsoft Word and other formats
to FrameMaker and are sharing our best practices so that even more customers can
reduce publishing costs in translation and localization projects."

This two hour online course covers the fundamentals of preparing Microsoft Word
documents for conversion and best practices for correcting the imported content and
formatting in FrameMaker, including:
. Quickly locating styles that need retagging after conversion
. Using advanced search features during reformatting
. Efficient tools for correcting converted tables
. Converting embedded bitmapped graphics to externally referenced files (reducing
document size)
. Capturing vector graphics created with Microsoft Word drawing tools and converting
them to external graphics with editable vectors and editable text

WebSeminar: "Converting Legacy Documents to FrameMaker"
Date: Thursday, March 29, 2007
Time: 11:00 am - 1:00 pm PDT
Where: Your desktop
Register at: http://www.translate.com
Cost: $149.00 (enter promo code \"INVPR\" and receive $50.00 off your registration)

Course attendees receive a free FrameMaker plug-in that automatically converts the
first row of each table to a "header row," a Best Practices document on converting
legacy files, training materials, and a recording of the training session. Because
the course assumes some knowledge of FrameMaker, ENLASO will hold a complimentary
one-hour overview of FrameMaker online the day before the course, for attendees who
need more background on FrameMaker. Attendees will also be invited to submit a short
"problem" Microsoft Word document to the instructor before the WebSeminar, so actual
real-world examples can be used during the online training.

Educational Webinars and WebSeminars are part of ENLASO\'s commitment to providing
long-term localization success through education and consulting. "Converting Legacy
Documents to FrameMaker" is designed for FrameMaker users who inherit legacy
documents in Microsoft Word format and for Microsoft Word users who are considering
upgrading to FrameMaker.

This WebSeminar is taught by Maxwell Hoffmann, a 23-year veteran of desktop
publishing and document conversion solutions. Hoffmann manages training and
consulting at ENLASO. He has used FrameMaker for over 18 years and is also a former
FrameMaker Product Marketing Manager. Hoffmann has focused on document localization
and translation for the past 10 years, working extensively with document analysis
and XML publishing strategies. He has trained over 1,000 customers and sales
professionals on a variety of scalable publishing solutions.
