Andreas,
	The EToys QuickGuides are a blend of pictures and text on a 
small-format page.  Spacing and layout are very important.  We found 
that the #translated technique did not work.  Quickguides need to be 
translated as a whole by hand.  Each QuickGuide is a separate file, 
so we made up a separate folder of guides for each language.  The 
person doing the translation duplicates the folder and edits each 
file.  He/she moves the images around and re-words the text.
	QuickGuides are a special case where formatting is very important.
