Localisation
What is Localisation?
It is essential to understand that localisation involves
more than just
translating the words in a document.
In simple terms it means that during the translation and DTP
process, local linguistic styles, formatting styles and conventions
must be observed.
This could be something as simple as changing the format of
a date for example: the date format for UK English would be
22/1/04, but for US English it would be 1/22/04, or a more
complex issue such as making sure the language and format
of a software package reflect the current cultural and industry
standards.
