Hungarian software
localization is the process of adapting the language, appearance, and
functionality of a software application for Hungary. Hungarian software
localization projects should be executed by experienced teams of localization
professionals who work in conjunction with your software development group,
ensuring that best practices for global software development are followed.
To make your software
relevant for Hungary, all of its components should be localized. This includes
the user interface, online help, databases, graphics, and documentation. It is
important that all components are correctly localized and rigorously tested to
ensure the resulting Hungarian software is linguistically, culturally,
cosmetically, and functionally correct.
A Hungarian
localization company should have solid experience and a comprehensive
localization methodology, which includes at a minimum:
- Hungarian localization kit review, analysis, and preparation.
- Hungarian glossary and terminology development.
- Hungarian cultural correctness assessment.
- Hungarian translation, editing, and proofreading of the user interface, help, and documentation content.
- Hungarian graphics localization, dialog resizing, and screen capturing.
- Hungarian software build capability.
- Hungarian online quality assurance.
- Hungarian usability, localization, and functionality testing.
- Client review and approval.
You will need to
provide your localization company with the following information, collectively
referred to as a "Hungarian Localization Kit." This information
allows the localization company to analyze your software and to determine its
Hungarian localization requirements. The kit includes:
- All files in your development environment, specifically resource files (for example, RC, RC2, DLG, H, HH, CPP, EXE, DLL, and graphic file formats).
- All documentation source files (for example, FrameMaker or Word).
- All online help source files (for example, graphics, RTF, VBS, HTML, CNT/HHX/HHC).
- Reference material (glossaries, past translations, style guides, etc.).
- File names and types, including an explanation of each file's purpose.
- The name and version of development, documentation, and online help authoring tools.
- The location (directories/files) of any hard-coded literals which are in the user interface.
- Original files of any third-party applications/components used.
- Detailed build instructions (if applicable).
- Test plan and test scripts (if applicable).
