Hi Jan

I suggested that only as the assumed 'work-around', since I do not think
that to be the appropriate pattern? I do not think that files are
necessarily neutral content. It can work like that, but it makes the
experience of using LinguaPlone to translate a site kinda erratic?

If there is a section of resources which contains pdf's, I would like to be
able to translate them to the other language and upload the pdf's in that
language. LinguaPlone allows me to translate the 'container of the file' -
Title and Description - but  I am stuck with the original language pdf?

It detracts from an otherwise logical, good translation experience. I think
the product will be more consistent an experience if one can do a file
translation as I suggest.

In fact, I only asked the question here, because I thought maybe there is a
bug preventing me from replacing the file, or because I am doing something
wrong ... :)

Anyway - I will find out more about the LinguaPlone project and where one
can discuss usability issues and ways to contribute - I need to do some more
homework on this!

All the best

Gustav
