Lingobit  Localizer 6.0: First Localization Tool to Allow Rebranding

REDMOND, WA – April 1, 2009: Lingobit Technologies has released new version of its flagship product – Lingobit Localizer 6.0. New release offers features and enhancements to cut localization costs and increase efficiency, including unique technology for software rebranding.
Rebranding is a product adaptation for a new market. It is very effective instrument to create precisely positioned products, and promote them separately to several target markets. If you consider rebranding for software products it doesn’t require huge investments such as in other industries and therefore can be very efficient instrument. “Innovative technology of Multilingual Rebranding is a new step in evolution of localization tools” says Michael Trent, marketing manager at Lingobit Technologies. “Software rebranding is a very similar task to software localization, and we decided to combine these two processes into one to boost efficiency and increase return on investments”. As result you can configure existing Lingobit Localizer project and create several localized brands with one click.
In addition to multilingual rebranding Lingobit Localizer 6.0 introduces:

• Support for Java, PHP, Perl, Java Script, Symbian, VBScript, SQL, and Visual Basic localization
• Support for Right-To-Left languages such as Arabic and Hebrew
• Terminology pre-translation and consistency validation
• New Standard Edition – cost effective version for small projects
• Huge improvements in Delphi and C++ Builder localization  
• Translation Hints panel that radically simplifies translation reuse  
• Automatic translation using Google Translate API into more than 40 languages

Furthermore, Lingobit added examples that demonstrate localization of MFC, Delphi, Java and .NET applications using Lingobit Localizer. New examples help evaluate new version and demonstrate best localization practices. Lingobit Localizer 6.0 is immediately available at a company website.
