SDL Desktop Products, a division of SDL International that focuses on globalization productivity solutions for corporations, localization service providers and professional linguists, announced today that Argo Translation, a leading localization firm with clients that include GE Medical and QTI, has converted to SDL Localization Suite as their primary localization environment for future projects to help provide a complete and more simplified solution to their valued clients

 "Within two weeks of installing the software, we began a large HTML-based e-learning project made up of over 1,000 individual HTML files with a 10-day timeline!" said Peter Argondizzo, President of Argo Translation. "We had extensive Trados memories for this client, but the burden of handling the huge number of files with a one-file-at-a-time process was intimidating. The compatibility that Localization Suite has with Trados™ gave us the confidence to begin the project, with the SDLX™ component of Localization Suite allowing us to automatically "glue" the HTML files for translation into just 4 files instead of 1,000."

The backend of the project was further simplified using HtmlQA, SDL's industry-standard quality assurance tool that comes with Localization Suite. "We really liked the detailed reports generated by the tools," Argondizzo said. "This was a lifesaver - we were able to meet the deadline and still leverage past work from Trados™."

"Translation Companies require an easy-to-use, comprehensive, end-to-end solution that includes free high-quality support, free training and full support for the industry's open standard - TMX *."  said Brian Briggs, Vice President of SDL Desktop Products. "We are glad that Argo recognizes our ability to deliver on those needs."
