Unique
Localization Solutions & One-Stop Service Center
Who
The client is a US-based large software company
What
As a part of its international growth strategy, the
client planned to release a localized version of its core product
versions including Chinese, Japanese, Korean, German, French,
Italian, Spanish, Portuguese and Swedish as soon as possible.
However, the product was designed without considering the internationalization
requirements, and the client did not want to recode the product
entirely for this release.
Solution
After analyzing the client’s requirements, BizSmooth
built a dedicated project team consisting of software development
members and localization staff (including languages experts
and technical experts). The project team developed a software
“extractor” to pull all texts in the product, and move them
into the backend database. Then the team coded a language filter
to select the texts from the backend database according to the
language requirements. After that, the localization team translated
the original English text into the different languages and made
the TVT available on different OS platforms.
