Easy Way of Translating PDF on Mac

One of the banes of translation is certainly dealing with PDF. Introduced in the early 1990s, it was mainly used as means of prepress proofing.

Another good news is, especially for Mac translator, like yours truly, Iceni now has Mac version of Infix.

Embedding responsive rich media

One of the challenges of RWD is embedding rich third-party media responsively. This is because many rich media, such as YouTube, Google Maps, Instagram, Vine, do not provide responsive embed code, thus breaking an already responsive web page.
