(Is this forum still active?)
Straight to the question: can we use original translations for the texts? Riven was translated in a few languages when it came out, but I suppose there are copyright issues with those.

Ehm, no. I mean Atrus', Gehn's and Catherine's diaries, for Starry Expanse.

To elaborate: OHB's policy is not to allow translations of the 'original contents' as that would be 'stepping on Cyan's toes'. I hate those translations, but understand his reasons. There is a problem with Riven, though. In a few languages it was completely translated and dubbed; the rights belongs to, I guess, the local publishers and not Cyan itself. In any case, I suppose the answer is no.
