Software Localization (l10n)

Software localization (l10n) is the term used for adapting a software product to the linguistic, cultural and technical needs of the target market. Think Global offers the following localization solutions for Microsoft and Internet applications:

Software localization of resource files

C++, JavaScript and PROP, .NET, PHP, RC, etc. or program files (DLL, EXE, etc.)

Software localization of help files

Formats: RTF, XML, HTML, etc., with tools like Robohelp, etc.

Localization of software using string tables

(Excel, etc.)

Resizing and repositioning of localized GUI components

Visual and functional testing

In the case of complex software localization projects, the team at Think Global works together with international engineering and testing centers in order to determine the best possible localization strategy and testing cases. Standard localization tools (Catalyst™, Multilizer™, etc.) are used in the localization process.
