About the project:
The client wants to make desktop publishing for the translated washing machine manuals. As we all know, desktop publishing (DTP) synthesizes the capabilities of graphic design, typesetting in one integrated, cost effective software and hardware configuration. Languages required are Chinese, Japanese and Arabic. Adobe Illustrator is a must for this project. The final work should keep the same typefaces and type sizes with the previous manual.

Challenges:
1) The client provided Chinese, Japanese and Arabic manual in doc format, but each translated file contained other languages, including French, Italian, Spanish and English. At the very beginning, we are confused about the client real needs and not sure if the whole content for each translated file should be put into one AI file. Also the Chinese, Japanese and Arabic translation files have similar content. After back and forth communication with the client, we have a clear outline for this project. We need to produce 3 AI final files and only insert the required language translations in AI files to do desktop publishing work accordingly.

2) As the Arabic have its own typeface, which is totally different from our familiar Asian languages such as Chinese, Japanese, Korean and Malay. Therefore, we need to find a native Arabic DTP specialist who could follow the client guidelines with respect to formatting, typography and colors and work out an intact and correct Arabic AI file.

3) The client in urgent need of the project, it is need to be finished within one working day.
