Managing Files, Web Pages, and Projects
Files are imported into STPM using Import File on the File menu, while Web pages
are accessed using STPM’s Web Toolbar.
When you import a file or display a Web page, STPM automatically creates a project.
A project contains a source document and a target document, with each document
appearing in its own window in the main area of the STPM screen.
The first step in using STPM is to import a file or display the Web page that you want
to translate.
