Using SYSTRAN Dictionary Manager (SDM)
SYSTRAN Dictionary Manager (SDM) lets you create, and maintain User Dictionaries
(UDs), which can be used to customize and improve your translations.
Dictionary resources can be used for a number of functions, including:
 Translating terms not found in the SYSTRAN Main Dictionary.
 Overriding the target-language meaning of a term in the SYSTRAN Main
Dictionary to customize translation output.
 Ensuring that a multi-word expression is always treated as a single unit by the
translation software.
Launching SYSTRAN Dictionary Manager (SDM)
Double-click the SYSTRAN Dictionary Manager icon on your Desktop, or click Start on the
Windows Taskbar and select All Programs >Systran> SYSTRAN Dictionary Manager.
