Translation is a growing industry with new translation agencies
constantly arriving on the scene. Each translation agency is
different with its own language and technology strengths. For
example, a translation agency may or may not offer Thai
translation, depending on its business model. Even Thai translation
agencies differ from one another, with some choosing to supplement
Thai translation services with Thai internationalization,
localization, desktop publishing, testing, and globalization
consulting services.
Thai Translation
Thai translation agencies provide translations for a wide spectrum
of industries, including finance, life sciences, legal,
pharmaceutical, telecommunications, information technology, and
more. Many Thai translation companies provide translation services
for three basic media: software and associated components, Web
sites, and documentation.
Thai Internationalization
Thai Internationalization (I18n) is the process of enabling
back-end technologies to function or support Thai.
Thai Localization
Localization deals primarily with the front-end or linguistic and
cosmetic aspects of a software application or Web site, including
locale-specific content, cultural correctness, translations, and
design. Thai translation agencies can adapt a product for Thailand
by localizing it specifically for those areas.
Thai Desktop Publishing
Thai document translation refers to the translation of printed
materials such as user guides, medical inserts, financial
information, and more. Thai translation agencies that provide this
service are also likely to provide Thai desktop publishing, which
involves maintaining the formatting specifications of the source
documents.
Thai Testing
In order to ensure your localized Thai Web site or software
application is fully functional and completely adapted to target
users, a Thai translation agency must use experienced Thai testers
and follow a thorough test plan.
Thai Globalization Consulting Services
Some Thai translation agencies choose to offer globalization
consulting services, which provide consultation and education in
areas such as site promotion, target markets analysis, cultural
correctness analysis, and more
