Integrated Machine
Translation - more
information »

Even using Translation Memory it is not always possible
to get a 100% match and although fuzzy matching can be used to speed up
the process of translating there are occasions when the fuzzy match is
just too fuzzy, or when there is no match at all. Now with SDLX you can
call on Machine Translation to help when Translation Memory cannot.
Machine Translation, incorporated within SDLX, adds an extra tool to
increase your translation efficiency. It comes complete with a standard
dictionary and a dictionary editing function that enables you to customize
your own.

New Quick-Start translate -
more
information »

Working with any complex tool for the first time can be a
daunting experience. SDLX now comes with a quick start user interface to
get you up and running with a single file simply by right clicking on it
from Windows Explorer. Right click on your file, designate your languages
and you are immediately translating. To save your work on completion
simply view the file in its original format and save it in the normal
manner.

Trados Export filter

Clients often ask for a Trados memory when a final
translation is delivered to them. SDLX now allows you to do this. Work in
SDLX and deliver a Trados memory by simply choosing the Trados default
rules at the start of your project. You can also work directly on
uncleaned Trados files using SDLX.

Flexible Software
License

Many translators have complained about the inconvenience
of dongles (the software protection device which plugs into the back of
the computer). We have introduced the Flexible Software License as an
alternative to the dongle. It offers a more user-friendly and convenient
way to use SDLX Computer Aided Translation software.

Once you have purchased a Flexible Software License, you can register
and de-register SDLX as often as you like on any PC - the license is
personal to you, not your computer. This is especially useful for
translation companies wishing to distribute multiple copies of SDLX, or
freelance translators working at more than one PC. It is equally
convenient for translators using just one PC.

Firstly, you will need an internet connection to download the SDLX
software and user manuals. You will also need to access the SDLX website
in order to buy and register your Flexible Software License. Once you have
activated SDLX, you will not require further internet connectivity to use
it.

PowerPoint Filter

SDL has been asked many times by the translation
community to provide a PowerPoint filter. Now with SDLX™ you can easily
export text from PowerPoint allowing you to translate it before replacing
it in its original PowerPoint format.

Source File segment
splitting

SDLX now allows you to define how you want to segment
your source files when preparing them for translation. This gives the
translator a far more flexible approach to file preparation and provides
greater flexibility and efficiency to the more experienced user.

Enhanced overall
speed and reliability

The SDLX development team has carried out an extensive
review of all the algorithms used within SDLX to take maximum advantage of
new features provided by the Windows development environment. This has
improved the speed and reliability of the product.
