LOCALIZATIONS

Localization is the process of adapting your product, to a specific locale -- to its language, standards and cultural norms as well as to the needs and expectations of a specific target market. Beside the translation of text, icons,cultural, content and technical issues must be considered including local conventions, time/date displays, measurement systems, numbers and currency, legal conventions, character encodings & fonts.

Sofware Localization

Linguistically adapting software for a target market is easier said than done, and there are not many companies who can get it done right for you the first time.
Software products usually comprise a number of components, all or any combination of which may need to be localized into specific languages: the user interface, the on-line help text, and ancillary materials (i.e. user's guides, training materials, licensing materials, etc.).
These software products are designed to work on specific platforms. The most common development platforms today are Microsoft Windows and the Internet, each platform requiring its own set of technical and engineering skills, localization tools, and linguistic skills
