• Q: Why do you want the source coded files? Will our code be broken?

• A: Website localization is not a process of cut and pasting from translations in an MS Word file. This is what many web developers tend to believe. We will work with you on the options that are available to you or work directly with your IT team.

• Q: Our website is in a CMS system. How do we get the content to you?

• A: It depends on the CMS system that you are using. There are many CMS systems, including WordPress, that already have a utility created in our industry that can be used to plug in and route content for translation. It is the management of that content that is important – we are not talking about machine translation but rather a plugin or utility that connects with the CMS system and then allows you to route exactly which content you want translated and then import it back in to the site.
