We, Japanese Translation Team, are using po4a
to manage source and translated strings in "dia" figures.
But, we gave up to rely ONLY on po4a to translate "dia" figures.
Because, 
1. reasonable size, position, and alignment of text-box are strongly depends
   on layout of non-text elements (allows, rectangular box, etc...),
2. some fonts used in en-US/images/*.dia does not have Japanese characters,
3. the above matters can not be handled by po4a.
This means that, after generation of translated "dia" figures using po4a,
we must tweak layout of elements and specify fonts by hand using Dia.

For now, source strings in "dia" figures does not be updated frequently.
So, we are satisfied with our approach.

Sincerely yours,
Ryuunosuke Ayanokouzi
