Italian term or phrase: elaborazioni
Clause in a contract for a writer who is to write an entry for a brochure:

‘Nella cessione sono compresi i diritti di riproduzione a mezzo stampa in volume, di traduzione e pubblicazione in altre lingue, di elaborazioni e adattamenti,…….’.

Elaborazione keeps pointing me to ‘processing’ as in data, but this doesn’t make sense in the context. I think it must mean elaborate in the literal sense - develop it or add to it.

Explanation:
If it was music, it is easy, arrangements, same tune with piano and violins, instead of trumpets. For something written, you would have adaptations and versions for children or maybe for a film. (p.s. version is not translation in English, unless made explicit: French version).

editing

Explanation:
Se intendi lettura critica e modifica... puoi pensare anche a questo. Nel senso di rielaborare. Anche revising (ma mi piace meno).
Processing indica effettivamente un processo ben definito, non creativo, quale quello che può fare una macchina o un operaio. Non uno scrittore.

Spero ti possa aiutare. ciao. buon lavoro.
