A solution for localization without requiring access to source code

WizTom is based on a very simple idea: make the translation process independent of the development cycle, while relying on a proven and robust technology.


Using only human translations, WizTom modifies at run time the texts displayed by any GUI component (or printed report) of your application.

 

 

 

 

 


- Whatever the technical architecture can be ...Windows, web, Java, .net, emulators
- Whatever the development tool used to create the application... any language or authoring tool, 4GL, BI tool...
- Whatever the initial and target languages...It manages font switch and mirroring effects!

This incredible technology does not even need to access the source code to make your application multilingual. With WizTom you can deploy any application translated in any language, including commercial ERPs, BI systems, Collaborative tools, proprietary applications, etc...

Benefits maps

  1. Benefits map
  2. Quality: Human Translation, 100% of the GUI can be translated - including Data and Reports
  3. Constraint: No specific development required - source code is not even needed
  4. Evolutivity: All your technologies or architectures are supported, current or future
  5. Reusability: You can integrate translations from previous versions and reuse 100% of WizTom components and translations for other projects
  6. Cost: Save time and money – Develop / manage / test / maintain only 1 unique code

The localization process with WizTom

WizTom Studio is the integrated environment allowing Localization Managers to implement this simple process, regardless of the target technical context (Windows, Web, Java or .NET). It provides them with all the necessary tools

Extractor
Translation Editor
Export / Import
Deployement Helper

It only takes a few mouse clicks in WizTom Studio to set up and maintain the multilingual database throughout the product life cycle:

Define project
Create original language column
Provide target language translations
Tuning and QA (terminology/resizing)
Deployment

 

The localization process

 

How does it work?

This unique technology makes it possible to separate the localization process from the development cycle, and to use one single localization environment, regardless of the architecture or the tools used to build the application. WizTom modifies at run time the labels displayed by any GUI component (or printed report) of your application.

Web-based applications

  1. WizTom Web Proxy Server may be installed on a separate server or on the same machine as the origin Web server.
  2. It will intercept and modify the HTTP/HTTPS stream generated by the web server before it is displayed on the client browser.

WizTom for the web

By modifying the HTTP stream, it will modify the screen displayed on the Client

Windows-based applications

  1. WizTom Runtime is installed on the end-user’s machine, to intercept and translate strings and messages on the fly just before display. The application screen is displayed by a Windows process, using Windows Graphical APIs intercepted and modify at run time.

WizTom for Windows

By intercepting the Windows graphic APIs, and replacing texts by translations, the application screen will be translated!
