Abstract: The present disclosure describes design-time tools that assist a document designer in designing a document that is ready for translation into multiple target languages. In particular, techniques are described that enable a user or designer of a document to, at design time itself, check and verify that text elements included in the document for displaying text content are properly sized for displaying translations of the text content in one or more desired target languages. If a text element is not large enough to contain all the desired translations within its boundaries, i.e., there is at least one translation of the text content that cannot be fully contained within the boundaries of the text element, an indication is provided to the user or designer.
