Translate any format in Wordfast Classic with Wordfast Pro 3 Thread poster: Dominique Pivard

The process looks complicated. Many things can go wrong. The advantage of WFC is that I can segment the text on the go. This is not possible if I preprocess like in this example. | | | Freedom of choice | Mar 4, 2012 |

The method I described is aimed at people who prefer using Wordfast Classic (and there are lots of them). | |

I didn't see any advantages in it for me since I only use the most basic functions and anything remotely resembling a complication - for example a different-looking interface or moving the position of a function key - not only puts me off, but makes me actively "bad mouth" the product in question to anyone in earshot. This goes for all software I use (am still fuming about Windows 7). "If it's not broke, don't fix it." | | | sentrodil (X) Türkiye Local time: 08:39

When it is released, it will be found at http://wordfast.com/store_download.html , like all public releases of Wordfast Pro. Don't ask me about the exact date of release, I'm not the one who decides about such things. sentrodil wrote: Where did you find it? Are you a tester? Yes, I'm a beta tester. I'm not sure if there are openings for additional beta testers, but the person who decides about it will probably see this post and contact you, if there's a need for more beta testers. | |

Dominique, could you outline the sequence of basic steps that should be performed after translating all the source text using WordFast Classic ? I mean : quality check, spelling check, reorganize memory, perform clean-up, etc. and the order in which these steps should be carried out. | | | To report site rules violations or get help, contact a site moderator: You can also contact site staff by submitting a support request » Translate any format in Wordfast Classic with Wordfast Pro 3 Wordfast Pro | Translation Memory Software for Any Platform
