Ingénierie de localisation

Localization or L10N engineering is an important part of the professional localization process. CSOFT localization engineers are specially trained to work with a variety of software tools, file types and OS platforms to support the localization of our clients' wide range of product portfolios. Among the various tasks conducted by our localization engineers are the following:

• File prep and analysis (word count, TM leverages)
• Compilation and engineering (software builds, dialog box resizing)
• Cosmetic testing
• File conversions (clean/uncleaned files, preparation for DTP)
• Customization of TM tools

All CSOFT localization engineers are equipped with in-depth knowledge of different OS's (Windows, Mac, Linux), software utilities, translation tools, development environments and multiple programming languages. Being technical is an important differentiation between CSOFT and other translation (only) companies. Among the many skills our engineering team excels are the following:

• Working knowledge of installation/configuration of multilingual OS and platforms
• Experience with a variety of development environments and programming languages such as Microsoft Visual Studio, Java and Linux
• Intimate knowledge of internationalization, Unicode and multi-byte character issues in software development
• Detailed understanding of database systems, scripting languages, and software graphical interface development
• Experience with different installation programs such as InstallShield, WISE and InstallerMaker over different platforms
  

Using our creative approach to problem solving, CSOFT L10N engineering capabilities can help our clients shorten time-to-market and reduce overall project costs. They also help streamline our localization workflow and greatly improve the consistency and quality of localization projects.
