Engineering

One point that sets us apart from our competitors is the existence of a well-trained and experienced engineering department.

Within this engineering department TOIN is capable of creating and providing our clients the most efficient and cost-effective method to localize their products.

Gathering years of experience, our engineering department can handle most of the data formats and applications available in the market today.

"Our role is to provide our clients with the most efficient and cost-effective method to localize their products and to support them with all the technical aspects of the localization process."

The majority of our engineering staff is bilingual and can answer directly any technical question that our clients might have through the whole localization process.

Some of our Engineering processes... 

Data Verification

We perform a complete check of the supplied source files to assess in advance any potential issues. At the same time, we perform a mock translation to detect any issues that might arise during the translation work.

Pre-processing and Post-processing

Sometimes processing is required before the start of translation. Proper pre-processing can optimize translation work and enable smooth post-processing after the translation.

Run-through Check

It is very important that IT-related documents and online help resources are consistent with the actual user interface of the application. By running this check we can guarantee that the document or online help will match the application.

Screen Shots

It is also important that the document or online help contains screen shots from the localized application. We generate these screen shots from the localized application, perform the required processing, and then import them to the documents or online help.

Testing

Once the products have been translated, it is important to check their functionality and verify that no issues have arisen as a result of the localization process. We have a full set of resources to test our clients' products in the required environments.

Tools Development

In addition to the standard tools, we also proactively develop and apply our own tools for pre-processing, post-processing, quality assurance and testing. This enables us to ensure quality to an even higher standard and reduce work times. 

Early Application of the Latest Technology

From SGML to the present XML-standard, TOIN is an industry pioneer in proactively introducing and developing new technologies. We use these resources not only for localization, but also to make development proposals to clients.
