The Translator action task is useful for data files using foreign languages, as well as to convert
Unicode data files (which are not supported by PlanetPress Workflow).
Note
You can create your own translation matrix files for the Translation Action Task by adding
them to the following folder:
%CommonProgramFiles%\Objectif Lune\PlanetPress Workflow 7\Plugins\Translator
Two examples are already present, converting ASCII to and from IBMEBCDIC.

Galician, German, Icelandic, Indonesian, Italian, Malay, Norwegian, Portuguese, Spanish,
Swahili and Swedish. Codepage 932 is often used for Japanese.
Input
Any text-based data file.
Processing
The characters in the data file are converted from the old encoding to the new one.
