This is not a good option, since it may not give you the correct grammar 
or translation.
I used it to translate the LibreOffice-Box DVD, that is in German, to 
English, and we are still finding the errors after two months.  If you 
do not speak a second language, like me, you can use the online 
translation services for a "rough guide" on what the text is saying but 
not for exact/proper  word/grammar translations.

I wondered why the airplane was created as a marketing tool.  I still do 
not know, but I have ideas on how to use it.

I do not think we have the airplane on our North American Community DVD 
[English but has Brazil's installs].
"LibreOffice-NA.US <http://libreoffice-na.us/>"
I am not doing the "in person" Event Marketing for our DVD, since I use 
a wheelchair and it is hard for me to travel.  But I do support the 
different regional communities to create their own distribution DVD.  I 
am looking to have a CD set for those who have a computer that does not 
read DVDs.  I just bought a 10-pack of 4 disc per case DVD movie case 
and a 100-pack of a single DVD movie case.  I hope to have an 
All-Platform CD/DVD and a Windows-only version.

So you might want to look at our online version of the DVD as a testing 
site.   "LibreOffice-NA.US <http://libreoffice-na.us/>"   It might give 
you ideas on what another community is doing for its distribution DVD.  
The Windows-only version pages/files are being uploaded as I type this 
response, but the All-Platform option is up and running.

The marketing page link is
