Localization Tips

Acclaro provides complete software localization services to businesses expanding into new markets. We’ve worked with Oracle, Cisco, Sony and other industry leaders to localize desktop, client-server, web and firmware applications — from engineering and translation to testing and managing in-country reviews.

Whether it’s to support your first global deployment or an integrated simultaneous global release, Acclaro’s core competence in software localization will guide you through a smooth running project.

Defining what we do

Our teams have mastered complex international standards and draw on industry best practices and tools to successfully produce localized software. We group our software services in two broad categories:

  1. Internationalization: The process of designing (or re-engineering) software to support users in other locales and markets. This includes separating text from code, supporting local standards, such as date, time and currency, and handling Unicode or other character encoding standards for input, storage and display for the target locale. Internationalization creates a global product that is independent of any specific language and locale elements and is engineered to facilitate the localization process.
  2. Localization: The process of adapting a product to a specific market and language. This parallels the process for creating the English or source language original, and includes translating the text, as well as reformatting and testing the final product for the target language environment. Localization encompasses the entire product including software, help files, documentation, packaging and marketing material.
