Abstract:
A Japanese international health dictionary has been freely accessible to the public through the official website of Japan Association for International Health (JAIH). Since it is accessible only in an online environment, it can not be used in an offline environment, a common condition for field workers in developing countries. Converting the dictionary to an offline format would be the solution. Therefore, a program which reformats the up-to-date online dictionary in the official website of JAIH to popular “Electronic Book” format was developed. The resultant program will automatically execute batch processing without any manual operation.
