yes, but these documents represent 1118 items to translate :)

I started with the translation of the 'Advanced Stamps HOWTO' which is 
very technical, and i hope i did not too much mistakes. If somebody 
reading french and using image editors fluently, i will be happy to fix 
my errors.

And on anotjer hand, i had 2 errors with poedit with this document.
The first with the line beginning with 'Use the clone tool ...', and the 
second with the line beginning with 'It is very easy to ruin your hard 
work ...'.
These errors are similar :

   Error: 'msgstr' is not a valid PHP format string, unlike 'msgid'. 
Reason: In the directive number 2, the character ')' is not a valid 
conversation specifier.
  (for the first)
and

Error: 'msgstr' is not a valid PHP format string, unlike 'msgid'. 
Reason: In the directive number 2, the character 'n' is not a valid 
conversation specifier.

(For the second)

i don't see how to fix this error. Any idea ?
