If you have Slovenian clients, customers, or employees, you
will need Slovenian translation services in order to reach them in their own
language. There are over 2 million speakers of Slovenian worldwide, the vast
majority of which live in Slovenia. Although many Slovenian speakers have some
facility with English, Web sites, software, and documentation should all be
translated into Slovenian for best results in Slovenia.
Slovenian translation is just one part of a larger process
known as Slovenian globalization. Slovenian globalization is the process of
adapting your products (software, documentation, and Web sites) functionally,
linguistically, and culturally for Slovenian speakers worldwide.
Web sites
Research by IDC has shown that customers are four times as
likely to buy if Web site content is presented in their language. Slovenian
translation services for Web sites range from simple (such as a straight
HTML-based Slovenian Web site) to complex (such as a dynamic, database-driven
Slovenian web application). Your Web site translation company should have the
capability to translate text from source files such as HTML/XML, applets,
database exports, CGI scripts, Java scripts, graphic files, ASP files, or FLASH
files.
Software
Slovenian software translation services, more appropriately
called "localization" services, are needed to create an authentic
Slovenian software user experience. Online help, menu commands, and
installation instructions should be fully translated into Slovenian. Your
software translation company should have the ability to deal with programming,
scripting, and mark-up languages such as Java, VB and ASP, XML and ASP, C/C++,
and Visual Basic.
Documentation
Slovenian document translation refers to the translation of
printed materials such as books, user guides, promotional brochures, and
financial information. Different industries generate different kinds of
documents such as instruction manuals, packaging, and marketing materials, all
of which must be linguistically and aesthetically consistent with the original.
Common layout applications include QuarkXpress, FrameMaker, Word, and InDesign,
while graphics are often created and edited in Illustrator or PhotoShop.
