A Domino Global WorkBench 'project' comprises: The database(s) you want to localize. These might be new databases in the course of development, or existing databases now destined for use internationally. They are the 'source' databases. Domino Global WorkBench is primarily intended for localizing the design of a database, rather than the data documents it contains. Documents that are part of the design, such as small Help documents, can be localized using Domino Global WorkBench. Larger documents are best localized separately. One or more glossaries. These are Notes databases, built on a standard template, that hold terminology from the source database(s). Each entry in the glossary has one or more translation documents associated with it. Translators translate the text in the translation documents. For each source database a tagged database, which provides a link between the text in the source database(s) and the glossary entries. For each source database, one or more built language databases. These are the localized databases that people will use. Typically they comprise a multilingual Web site. There are two types of language database: A standard database (or template), with its design elements localized in one language. This is termed a 'unilingual' database. A multilingual database (or template), with its design elements localized in several languages. Users can switch from one language to another from Notes or from their Web browser. Language synchronization features can be added to the language databases to support translation workflow. Entries in a projects database, which stores information about Domino Global WorkBench projects. (Optional) Records of WorkBench operations stored in a reports database.
Demo: Show what a glossary database looks like.
Demo: Show an English template and a language template.
Demo: Show “config.ini”.
Domino Global WorkBench provides a number of advantages over conventional localization methods, including: Re-use of technical up-front investment One technical person can do the initial analysis of the application, define what needs to be translated and what should be left in the source language, provide contextual comments for translators, and so on. This effort speeds the work of all translators, who do not have to concern themselves with, for example, what should and what should not be translated (in fact much text that should not be translated they do not even see). Efficient use of resources Technical people perform technical tasks, whereas translators concentrate on translation. Translation is done with full contextual information Translators know at all times what design element they are translating and they can always trace it back in the source application. Re-usability of translations Your translation investment is protected. Because all translations are stored in glossary databases with full contextual information, they can be re-used in other applications that use similar terminology. Multilingual applications You can build several translated databases from a single source, or you can build one multilingual database with design elements in several languages. This simplifies the creation of multilingual Web sites.

The concept to localize a Notes application is quite simple. DGW pulls all the translatable strings from a Notes application to a Notes DB which is called ‘Glossary’. Translator can append the translation for different languages on the English (base language) strings. Then , DGW builds language the application base on the translation in the glossary. After testing and fine-tuning on the language application, Notes application localization is done. Following chart describes the localization process. We will introduce how to do the Notes application localization and the best practice for each phase in below sections. However, the step by step instructions are included because that they have been in DGW help files already.

Extract terms from design notes by DGW. Translatable English properties and DNT properties are generated. Send out the English properties to translation companies. Put in the language properties, DNT properties, layout properties (extracted from the previous version of language templates), and English templates to build language templates via DGW.
Introduce the steps to localize templates with DGW85 properties version.
Demo: Create properties files and DNT properties files.
