11/2000

"The preface of the first edition of this book started with 'Writing about software localization is like fighting against time'.

The web has taken over the world and new, web-based localization providers are challenging the larger, established localization vendors by offering advanced translation workflow automation solutions. Translation technology has evolved quickly, with an even greater number of translation tools available than ever before. Global or local web sites have become a necessity rather than a luxury, and more than half of all web pages are now in languages other than English."
