image INDEX Explanation: maybe, to indicate that it's a designation, or image 'index'? I agree with you and find your client's wishes quite unappropriate. |

yes you can Explanation: this is called in French "apposition" instead of meaning "image of the index" it means "image serving as an index" which seems to be perfectly right from what I have red : images are also stored in a different format (probably highy compressed) to be used as an index, certainly to accelerate the search speed among the images. HTH my modest knowledge in this matter |

L'image indexée...... Explanation: Konishiwa Fukuda-san I would have bet that it was a Japanese manual..... First of all i am not sure that your client will not ask you to modify text a third time. AS a matter of fact "l'image index" sounds a bit strange for me (but I am not a video specialist) I would have said " l'image indexée" "La fonction index" seems correct. Try to clarify this matter with your client because I think that an "index" mightcontains a colection of "image indexées" (fem. Plur. with accent). Suggest that you ask your client to use katakana instead of kanji - maybe it might help you to see where are the accents. Sayonara and ima sumina sai |

image index Explanation: You can safely drop the "d'" in a manual. It is not literary French but the purpose of a manual is to be short and clear. When you have taken a number of photos with a digital camera, they are stored in two ways. As individual images with the resolution you had chosen before taking the photos and as "thumbnails" or "vignettes" in French. These "vignettes" are displayed on the LCD screen when you select "index" in "play" mode. Then you can delete all the photos at the same time by selecting index-delete-all-OK. |
