What Mandarin translation demands.
The first decision in Chinese translation is the character set. Simplified characters serve mainland China and Singapore; Traditional characters serve Taiwan, Hong Kong, and Macau. Chinese is also written without spaces between words and often runs shorter than English, which changes how layouts breathe.
