Product Highlights:
- ToolBook Translation System’s authoring component identifies translatable elements of your ToolBook course and extracts them – maintaining the integrity of all formatting, color information, hypertext information, and other data – into a database.
- Your Translators can focus on what they are best at – producing the best content for your global audience. Translators don’t need to know how to use ToolBook; instead, they use the included Translator application that is designed to make it easy for language experts to translate the ToolBook content to different languages. The translation is done outside of ToolBook and your Translators don’t even need to have the ToolBook authoring system installed. Workflow features enables the translation process to occur quickly and smoothly
Different people can do these steps, for example, step 1 can be done by a ToolBook developer, while a professional translator can do step 2. This allows you to have a ToolBook localization workflow that fits in with how you work. The ToolBook developer can have as much or as little involvement in the localization process as desired.
