Localizing Nib Files

After you finish your application’s user interface, you can hand off completed nib files to your localization team for translation into other languages. The localization team can use the ibtool command-line program to extract any localizable strings from your nib files and create matching nib files in your product’s target languages. The team can also use Interface Builder to lock nib files to prevent engineers from making further changes that might impact in-progress localizations. The following sections discuss how to use these features in Interface Builder.
