Heartsome Translation Studio
The Concept
It is the first and only computer-aided translation (CAT) tool that is fashioned and developed entirely on latest open standards language technology:
- usage of XML Localisation Interchange File Format (XLIFF) as default file format
- usage of TMX (Translation Memory eXchange v1.4 and below), in translation memory database
- usage of SRX (Segmentation Rules eXchange v1.1 and below) for segmentation of filesusage
- usage of TBX (TermBase eXchange) in terminology database
- usage of UTF-8 (Unicode) for text encoding
- usage of ISO 639 for language codes and ISO 3166 for country codes
