Abstract
Software translation quality and efficiency are improved by providing user interface (UI) context for translators. Unicode symbols are used to uniquely tag user-visible strings from the source code and into resource files. Those strings include titles, product names, error messages, strings in images and any other text that may be present on the user interface. Once the 'pseudo' resource files are integrated into a build, automation is run to gather screenshots of the application. Image recognition is then used to link screenshots of the UI in which a resource file string appears, such that screenshots will be brought forward and displayed to the translator when working on translating the user-visible strings of the software being localized.
