Mmmm no this should not create work for other (the english) people. I wonder if there is a drawback to simply create an empty paragraph as this: > + <!-- > + NOTE TO TRANSLATORS: > + translate this or leave it blank: Bla bla > + --> > + <remark> > + </remark> or using the <para> tags, I do not know which is best here; perhaps <remark> but it may create an empty colored frame in the page? The problem is that this message should go in a different paragraph and it seems that there is not an easy way to create a translators only piece of text that works with PDF and ODF without ugly hacks with stylesheets or such. (not jocking) thanks for the time you spend in this - not so useful - question TIA -- Marco Ciampa +--------------------+ | Linux User #78271 | | FSFE fellow #364 | +--------------------+ _______________________________________________ Gimp-docs mailing list Gimp-docs@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-docs
