Medical-device software into Chinese: connect strings, screens and manuals

Prepare Chinese medical-device software text with stable string IDs, placeholders, screenshots and linked manuals for an agreed localization review.

Device Software: start with the connected source set

Chinese device-software localization needs more than a list of words. Give each string a stable ID, screen context and a link to the manual passage that explains the same state or action.

NIPRO’s published case concerns registration files and technical specifications translated from Chinese into English. It supports related device-document experience, without claiming a software validation, UI deployment or Chinese-target software project.

See the published project scope for the recorded language direction and file types.

Device Software: what the Chinese reviewer needs to follow

Give each source string its stable ID and a screenshot showing the relevant device state. Preserve placeholders and distinguish a language check against screenshots from testing in a running application or validating the device software. The paper example below is fictional.

Review status: questions to confirm

Self-created examples only. Client files, operational values and confidential wording are not reproduced.
  1. Keep resource syntax intact

    Preserve placeholders, escape characters and non-translatable keys. Identify which resource formats and screenshots belong to the software build being reviewed.

  2. Check state and action

    Distinguish a notification from an instruction and a disabled control from an error. Ask the product owner to resolve wording that could imply the wrong available action.

  3. Agree the review boundary

    Document translation, screenshot review and in-application testing are separate tasks. Confirm which are included and who owns software verification and release.
