    (subject to support for specific combination of languages).

  • can add support for switching between language at runtime

  • can add a language selection dialog to the project

  • support for East Asian languages

  • select or hide texts in the source code with regular expressions, matching either the contents of the text string, or the surrounding code on the same line

  • translation status for each text, e.g.

    • original text
    • edited translation
    • online translation
    • translation memory

Purchase

You can purchase a license via ShareIt.com using this link.

Online Translation

Online translation is a great way to create a quick demo version of your project.

However, the translations will not be good enough for a released project. You will have to get a translator to check them over.

Spreadsheet export

Exporting texts to Excel (or Open Office) is an easy way to pass them on to a professional translator.
