+==== Translation ====
+The spotting is already done, but if you need to put 2 subtitles together, lengthen one for better visibility or whatever, here are the technical standards we use:
+  * 2 frames before and after shot change
+  * Max. 42 characters per line.
+  * Max 2 lines per subtitle.
+  * Min of 21 frames for a subtitle (=5/6 sec)
+  * Max 7 seconds for a subtitle
+  * 2 frames between each subtitle or 12 frames or more.
+  * attention to the number of characters per line (punctuation and spaces are to be counted)
+  * be careful with line breaks, sometimes capitalization is automatic
+  * do not forget the italic formatting
+==== SDH ====
+In addition to "Translation" rules, please follow the **Subtitles for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing (SDH) Guidelines**.
+==== Review ====
+The Reviewer should:
+  * Watch the whole film with subtitles
+  * Correct timing
+  * Correct spelling
+  * Check that translation is complete against the speech (correct omissions, wrong translation)
+  * Run Netflix Quality Check and resolve warnings
+  * Check the translator's signature
 ========= Quality Check =========
-Please run Netflix quality check ans resolve the warnings before delivery
+Please run **Netflix quality check ans resolve the warnings before delivery on every step** (after translation, after SDH, after review)
 Tools > Netflix quality check
 {{ :info:netflix_qc.png?nolink |}}
+========= Issue resolving =========
+==== Duration ====
+{{ :info:duration-issue.png?nolink |}}
+Choose **Tools** -> Adjust duration
+- recalculate chars/sec
+Or you may add a couple of milliseconds at the beginning or in the end of subtitle:
+{{ :info:duration-issue-1.png?nolink |}}
+Pay attention to the gaps and use the below audio wave to see the beginning and the end of the speech:
+{{ :info:neee.png?nolink |}}
+Please compare:
+{{ :info:falsch1.png?nolink |}}
+==== Text length ====
+The text should be max. 42 symbols per line.\\
+Max. 2 lines in one subtitle.
+{{ :info:text_length_1.png?nolink |}}
+You should split the long text between two lines.
+Read the rules how to split it.
+==== Frame gaps ====
+Spotting is already done, don't change it.
+If Netflix Quality Check shows the issue **"min 2 frames gap"**:
+  - Open Tools > Apply minimum gap between subtitles
+  - Min. miliseconds between subtitles: 84
+  - Frame rate info: take from video file properties
+  - Frames: 2
+  - Click OK
+{{ :info:apply_min.png?nolink |}}
+After this you should check the audio against the speech.\\
+And if needed you may also adjust the subtitle on the wave.\\
+When you drag and drop you will not extend the 2 frames limit. The tool doesn't allow it.\\
+E.g. when I hold and pull the (blue) end I can't pull it more.
+{{ :info:drag.png?nolink |}}
+==== Translator's signature ====
+If you did the translation, please add a subtitle in the end:\\
+Translated by [Name]\\
+in your respected language. Please find Translator's credit [[https://nm.oho2.com/index.php/s/Qjw5njHbEKyk3WQ|here]]. E.g.\\
+{{ :info:signature_end.png?nolink |}}
+you can use pen name at the end of file.
+==== Other tips ====
+If there is a signature on the screen, use tag {\a6} to move the subtitle above, e.g.:\\
+**{\a6}**man hat eine Fahrt\\
+und die muss geleitet werden.\\
