Applications - Translation

The source for multilingual documents, whether for printed or online publication, is often represented in XML. The initial translation of the source document is straight forward; the problem comes when the original is updated. In order to update the translations, it is necessary to know exactly what has changed in the original text. This is exactly the information a DeltaXML delta file provides.

Following an update to the master text, DeltaXML can compare the revised text with the previous version and identify where information has been changed. A number of companies are now including DeltaXML as a tool in the translation maintenance pipeline to reduce work and increase quality.

Companies using DeltaXML in this context include:

• SDL (UK)
• European Commission
• Healthwise (USA)
