Hi Guys,
So, I guess the first thing to do as I understand it is that the
translation has to be done first, then placed in the XML file under it's own
translated language category, correct?
I never have done it and wonder if the strings had to be translated
first than added. I guess I should have thought there would not be any
automatic translation once placed in it's own language category.
Thanks, I know Google has one and Firefox as well.

Subject: Re: Adding Languages
Your first issue, would be to get in touch with someone who can perform
the actual translation for you. NEVER, and I cannot stress this enough -
so once again NEVER trust any electronic, or automated translation
service. Your product would come out in a manner that would simply give
no professional touch at all, but look no less than one of these fishy,
spammy product that you can download from less reputable webservices.
So, get in touch with someone who knows for real, the language you want
the product translated into. From there, as suggested, the UI Design app
will be a good friend, unless you are comfortable with editting the XML
file directly. Based on my own experience, may I suggest that you copy
all the strings to be translated, into a text file which you can send to
the translator. When they have finished the translation, have them send
it back to you, and you then can copy and paste the translated text into
its proper osistions in the XML file. That is, unless they are a bit
more familiar with operating the computer in a software developing
environment, in which case they could easily be trained to do the
translation directly in the UI Design's interface. But many translators
are good at their job, namely to translate, and may not want to hazzle
around with the interface of the UI Design, however easy and smooth that
app has become by the years.
HTH,
David
