About Softeware documentation.
The programs that sells good, tends to get translated. Many PC programs
gets tanslated, and fewer for the ST. Programs like DEGAS SIGNUM and
1.ST WORD are all translated to danish. I'm not sure if the translation
is really needed, because the ST users in Denmarks is mostly non-pro.
compared to the PC users. Therefore many of them is used to reading
english manuals and using english programs, while many users in
buissines are not used to this. I think ATARI Denmark translates these
program, to attrackt buissines users. If you are making a com. program
i think that a translation is a must.

About the printers.
The people i know who own a printer (including my self) all use US
standard tractor paper. But most buissines documents or letters are
written on A4 size paper.
