Or translators, like you, who might need help getting all of the needed info
Well I don't know about others but I'm already up to Ecruteak.

I don't know anything about this file ID stuff, I just type the Japanese text, search it, and replace it with the translation.

The only time I directly cut and paste from DP, is when a file ID has the exact same number of text ID's as a file ID in Platinum. Why? Because that pretty much tells me that that text is directly from the Platinum Engine, so I can use the same exact translations as in Platinum and still be accurate.
