|
|
This step by step guide will introduce
you to WizTom for Windows and the localization
process. You may start WizTom Studio by
selecting the WizTom Studio shortcut from
the Windows Start Menu.

Mode of Operation |
 |
|
|
WizTom for Windows' unique technology allows
for hassle-free localization of any Windows
application into any languages. WizTom for
Windows consists of two components:
 WizTom
Studio: the localization tool;
WizTom
Runtime: the runtime environment.
The core technology lies in WizTom Runtime:
its role is to intercept any text before
it is displayed to the user, and replace
it with its translation from the Multilingual
Database.
|
 |
|
WizTom Studio is the localization tool
used to build the Multilingual Database.
It provides basic tools: capture of texts,
Translation Editor, as well as more specialized
tools such as the Deployment Helper, Extractors,
Import/Export filters and more.
Note that WizTom Runtime is also embedded
in WizTom Studio. This means that when a
project is active in WizTom Studio, WizTom
Runtime is also running on the computer.

The Localization
Process |
|
|
|
|
WizTom Studio's main window is already
organized according to the steps involved
in the localization process. In this section,
we will focus on the upper part of WizTom
Studio: the Basic Tools.
The localization process includes the following
steps:
Project
creation: application to translate,
original and target languages;
Extraction
or capture of the application's texts;
Translation
of these texts into the selected target
languages;
QA
review of the translated application;
Deployment
of the translation.
This tutorial will demonstrate WizTom for
Windows' features on Notepad.
