Abstract (en)
[origin: WO9207330A1] A telecommunications system includes a method for at least partially automatically converting monetary amounts in a document from one currency to a second currency. In addition, the telecommunications system includes a method for at least partially automatically translating a document being input in one natural language at a transmitting machine such as a facsimile or telecopier to a second natural language to be displayed, printed or otherwise communicated at a receiving end of a telecommunications link. A document containing the monetary amounts or translated portions is transmitted from a transmitting machine (40) and displayed, printed or otherwise communicated at a receiving end (36) of a telecommunication link. The monetary conversion and/or language translation may occur at any point in the telecommunications system, particularly at a transmitting facsimile device, a receiving facsimile device or a central facility operatively connected to a telecommunication network (26). The monetary conversion is preferably accomplished fully automatically, with decoders being used for determining identities of input and output currencies.
