The term internationalization, which is customarily abbreviated in the industry to I18N, refers to the process of adapting software for the purpose of simplifying and optimizing the localization process.

Correctly preparing the technical infrastructure and the code so that the product can support a large number of languages without the need to rewrite or reengineer, saves a lot of time, money and effort during the localization process.

Hever Localization employs experts who offer each customer individualized advice in order to launch an efficient and worry-free localization process.
In the I18N process, we address, inter alia, the following:

• Converting software to Unicode
• Support for bi-directional (BiDi) character support
• The option to export the materials to an external file
• Culturally-dependent changes such as: the way of writing numbers, hours, currency and other culturally-dependent issues
• Support for Asian languages which require multi-byte character support
