Challenges

Localization of Mac OS SnowLeopard along with plug-ins into CEE languages

• Requirements of the highest quality standards for the end product
• Necessity to maintain high terminological consistency between the engine and third party plug-ins
• Strict terminological rules and complex custom rules for localization in the source code
• Localization to be carried out with client specific CAT software and third party term bases

Solutions

• Structured project glossaries developed at the initial stage are being regularly updated in the workflow and changes are seamlessly implemented retroactively in the real time
• Localization of plug-ins proceeds according to the schedule set up in order to ensure the reciprocal consistency
• Continuous checks with the aim to ensure the intactness of the source code and consistency
• Flawless conversion of platform glossaries and translation memories into formats compatible with client CAT tools
• With permanent quality checks in the workflow the output successfully passes client’s strict quality tests on the first try
