Edit email template that is sent on creation of a manual order

Question

If I create a manual order in the admin section the customer is notified by email. I need to edit certain text that goes into this email but I don't know from where I can do this?

The specific text seems to be in one of the language files

   app/locale/en_US/Mage_Payment.csv

But when I tried editing it from here there was no change in the email so maybe I'm looking in the wrong place.

All help appreciated. thank you!

You can do this by Transactional Emails. Go to System -> Transactional Emails. Select Template to "New Order". Now you can change as required, But don't forget to assign this template to new order. Go to System -> Configuration -> Sales Email -> Order .

NB: If you can change then it will be effect from frontend order email.
