General info on localization process

[b***@gmail.com]

Hello, I was recently engaged as a translator for a large-scale
localization project . As this is my first experience I would like to
dig into the subject and I'm now looking for some extra info on
software localization. Technologies behind localization, different ways
to localize, the differences in translator's software and how they
effect translator's progress. I would appreciate any help in finding
useful info.


Kindest regards,
Alan Blake
