CCJK Solution
1. We changed code. And install Thai font. At the same time, we also asked our client to install it. Then the cleaned translation file can be displayed normally.
2. We arranged two translators and one proofreader to do this project.
There are many translators (EN-Thai) in our talent pool. However, we still asked them to do project test and carefully selected three most suitable and excellent translators who are professional in mechanics. Two of them did translation. The third one did proofreading.
3. Two translators should do Glossary file when they were doing translation. They deliver files by batches together with Glossary file. Then the proofreader arranged the Glossary when he did proofreading. We send updated Glossary file and updated TM from proofreader to the translators. Proofreader do QA by Xbench before delivery.
4. We keep TM and Glossary updated at any necessary time. It is convenient for future continuous projects.
Finally, the PM will check the file before delivering to the client. If necessary, PM would send the QA result to the proofreader for checking. Therefore, problems can be resolved during so many steps. And the quality can be promised.
