README for Outertech Translator Utility ================================================================= download: http://www.outertech.de/files/ottranslator.zip Every translator gets a free licenses to all our products. This is also the case if you update and improve an outdated translation. Translation standards. Please keep in mind that it's not enough to speak a language in order to translate, you have to know the computer terms of the language perfectly. Example: Translating "Indexing" to German could result in "Indexierung", but it would be wrong, it has to be "Indexdienst", because Microsoft translated it this way in the German Windows version. What to do before translating? First check whether the translation of the language is already available. If so, check if it is outdated. Is this the case, you can update it and still get a free license. How to translate? 1. If you have used the OT Translator for another product already, delete OTTranslator.ini first. This will allow you to select a new English.olf file. 2. Start OTTranslator.exe. 3. Select English.olf from one of the product folders, for example Cacheman\English.olf. 4a. Check if an outdated language file (e.g. Spanish.olf) exists and load it. 4b. If it does not exist, click "File/Save as" and enter a filename (e.g. French.olf). 5. Enter the language ID for you language (see the end of this readme for more info). 6. Translate the text in the Source Language column to the Destination Language column.
