file/document

English to Chinese Tech/Engineering Cooking / Culinary 繁體中文
英文中的file/document,在简体中经常把file译为文件,document有时译为文件,有时译为文档。而在繁体中文中,似乎file有“文件”和“檔案”两种译法;至于document,不知是否还是译为“文档”好?而“档案”这个词,在简体中出现时,似乎为archive的意义。

我的个人理解,不知对还是不对。对于file,当用于描述保存在磁盘中的介质时,一般采用“檔案”,而描述一份具有某种内容、(官方、正式)的文件时,一般采用“文件”。

至于document,不知是否还是写为“文檔”好?

希望听见繁体达人的解说。

Traditional Chinese for "file" is what I want The Traditional Chinese for "document" is an option only.
