WORK FOR CREATION OF ARMENIFIED WINDOWS XP TO BE COMPLETED IN THE
BEGINNING OF NOVEMBER
The BI LINE Company will represent the final version of the
armenified WINDOWS XP Program in the beginning of November, 2006.
As the President of BI LINE, Haik Khanjyan, told ArmInfo, at present,
the Program is under final testing based on the MICROSOFT tools. He
noted that, according to the initial agreement of sides, reached in
May, 2005, the BI LINE Company has to translate over 375,000 words
into Armenian. The WINDOW XP glossary, according to Khanjyan, is
translated into the eastern-Armenian language. Both the BI LINE
Company employees and other experts, whose candidacies were suggested
by the Council for assistance to IT sphere development in Armenia,
have worked over the Program. Meanwhile, Khanjyan noted, one issue
remains unsolved as yet, that is, selection of proper fonts. "The
point is that the standard Sylfaen font, the Microsoft offers to use,
is not quite readable in the Armenian version of WINDOWS XP,
especially in the "bold" font ", Khanjyan stressed, having informed
that the BI LINE holds another point of view in this issue: to
actuate the Arial AMU font, by MICROSOFT agreement. A. Khanjyan also
informed that localization of WINDOWS VISTA has been started already,
by the order of MICROSOFT BI LINE, to be completed in July, 2007. The
interlocutor noted it is possible at present to vote for one or
another translation of words by referring to sites, including the
site www.arminfo.info.
