CONTENT AUTHORING AND OPTIMIZATION
Once written, this material and information is processed in different tools and media, translated into multiple languages, and disseminated to audiences worldwide within a very short timeframe and on tight budgets. The results can be costly, and more importantly, the information might not be optimized or even clear.
ABREVE was created by the ArchiText division of Translations.com to help authors create and manage content in this environment—accurately and effectively—in any format and in every language.
ABREVE is an innovative, patent-pending content globalization solution that:
- Reduces source text volume
- Dramatically lowers localization and deployment costs
- Greatly improves consistency and raises content usability
-
Streamlines the multilingual content delivery process
ABREVE is a source-to-source process that works with the original content, combining globalized writing, editing, and content structuring techniques with state-of-the-art translation memory (TM) tools. The result is maximum usability for your content and much lower localization costs. Whether you are localizing into 3 or 30 languages—or even if you're not localizing at all yet—globalization through ABREVE is far more lucrative and efficient than you may have thought possible.
