Thanks for the advice. I know about Babelfish. And I do know German, but I
fall short on the technical terms. In this case, it has nothing to do with
"printing" or "customer" *grin* That's the problem with the autotranslators.
Seems that they also fall short on technical terms. Maybe I'll try 'pressure
relief valve' and translate from English to German...

Hi Phil,
I don't know any german but I went to:
http://babel.altavista.com/tr -- the babelfish translation engine --
and did the german to english translation -- it came up with "printing
customers".  You can play around with it to see if you can come up with
enough stuff to do your translation.
