Translation teams are encouraged to select images during the drafting stage, as the image suitability and captions need to go through the same checking/review processes as everything else in the project.
The SIL Base Plan places puts this in Stage 1 of 6: Drafting:
Copy to clipboard
Task: Insert Illustrations Description: Make initial decisions on illustrations. If captions contain text not directly from the scriptures, they should be consultant checked…
The team must insert the images, captions, etc. directly into the Paratext project. In the case of images for which the master copy is only available to typesetters, the team should instead insert placeholder images into the Paratext project.
