Hi, everybody,

I was wondering if there is already an stablished icon in the Internet for the meaning:

"Want to have this e-book translated?"

And maybe, there is another one, different, for:

"This e-book is available in several language versions"

Some examples of small icons for different purposes are here

ciando.com

One icon is for :
e-book available to be read on PC and MAC

Other icons are for:
e-book available in these e-readers:.......

Other icons are for:
e-book available to be read everywhere

So, my question is, is there an icon for :
"Want to have this e-book translated?"

In case there is not. How would you like this to be?

I see what you mean... Jun 8, 2010

The PC icon and Mac icon show a PC and/or Mac version is available
The Globe icon tells you there is an online version

What about the Set Language icon of Word (a globe with a book in front of it)
or a Globe with a question mark next to it for Set Language / or wanna have this translated??

Greetings
Ed

Word and Microsoft is always to be taken into account Jun 8, 2010

But in order to be homogeneus, it should be something similar to the other two or three icons, the ones shows in
