Localization (also referred to as "l10n") is the process of adapting a product or content to a specific locale or market. Translation is only one of several elements in the localization process. In addition to translation, the localization process may include:

• Adapting graphics to target markets
• Modifying content to suit the tastes and consumption habits of other markets
• Adapting design and layout to properly display the translated text
• Converting to local requirements (such as currencies and units of measure)
• Using proper local formats for dates, addresses and phone numbers
• Addressing local regulations and legal requirements

The aim of localization is to give a product the look and feel of having been created specifically for a target market, including the aspects of language, culture and location.

We provide localizations that combine translations and cultural adaptations of products and services to make them understandable to a specific culture and location. This includes the tailoring and adaptation of websites or software applications to specific countries, in terms of linguistic quality and cultural nuances in order to make companies accessible to an international audience.

To convert your software or website interface into other languages, you need our high-quality localization services.

We specialize in software localization services along with the localization of online help and documentation. LocaTran Translations provides software localization services in both Simplified and Traditional Chinese. So, your software localization projects will be done by our in-house experts.
