Once an
acceptable version of the software
to be localized is available,
translation of on-line help and
documentation can start. |

Our engineers
install the application and isolate
and export all translatable strings
and help texts. |
 |
Once the
translatable text is extracted,
experienced Chinese-Version
in-house translators and
proofreaders start translating. |
 |
Next, our DTP
staff localizes screenshots,
pop-ups, dialog boxes, buttons,
diagrams, and any other graphics.

 |
Translation
memory databases and glossaries
(used in translation of the
documentation) are created. |
