Would anyone know of a free online translation service from English to Spanish other than Babelfish. It works fine for the most part, but everything is translated in the formal "Usted" form. I would prefer something with the familiar "Tu" instead.

Thanks.

So why not copy the whole document to a word processor and replace "Usted" to "Tu" ALL at one shot.

Somewhere in edit I believe.

I would be surprised if you find one that does not use the formal 'Usted / Ustedes"

Spanish doesn't work the same as English. It isn't as simple as replacing one word with another.
 
Temporarily solved the problem by going back for another week. Just need to improve my Spanish at home I guess.
