Dear SignWriting List Members!
There are several people translating our SignWriting materials into  
their languages, and people ask me how to do this easily? So here are  
Lessons....

HOW TO CREATE A TRANSLATION OF A SIGNWRITING BOOK...

1. Download the SignWriting document in PDF Format
Let us imagine you wish to translate the Level 3 Goldilocks story. I  
download it by clicking on this link:

Goldilocks Storybook, SignWriting Level 3
http://www.SignWriting.org/archive/docs2/sw0168-US-Goldilocks-Level3.pdf

---------

2. Once you download the document, be sure that you have Acrobat  
Reader 7.0, which is a free program. You can download the newest  
version of Acrobat, 7.0, on the web. Do that now:

Download Acrobat Reader 7.0

3. Open the Goldilocks document in Acrobat Reader 7.0...continued
