Identifying and Resolving Not Found Words (NFWs)
Not Found Words, or NFWs, are terms that SYSTRAN does not recognize or for which a
meaning is absent. Once the DNT segments are set for the Project the next step in carrying
out your translation tasks should be to identify and reconcile the NFWs. NFWs can be terms
that are misspelled, or they can be document elements that are not present in your activated
dictionaries. They can also be acronyms, proper nouns, technical terms, trademarks, and
other special terms.
With the Not Found Word Review pane you can reveal words in your active document(s)
that are not included in your User Dictionaries and create dictionary entries for these words.
SYSTRAN reveals three (3) types of Not Found Words: Source, Transfer, and
Misspellings.
Source Source document terms that are currently
unidentified by S YSTR AN.
Transfer Terms that SYSTRAN can identify, but for
which it has no associated meaning.
Misspellings
Terms that SYSTRAN recognizes as being
misspelled.
By default, each NFW type is marked up in the Document Viewer in a different manner. Using
the Markup Style s pane, you can change these markup settings to suit your taste (refer to
Configuring Document Markup Options).
Before you use the Not Found Word Review pane you must first select the files in your
Project whose NFWs you wish to resolve. Click on a single file, or to work on more than one
file at a time, use the Tab key to highlight a range of files or the Ctrl key to individually select
files.
Review panes can be used once a translation action has been taken on a selected
Project source file.
1. Open the Not Found Word Review pane by selecting the View|Not Found Word
Review command or by clicking the Not Found Word Review button in the STPM
View Toolbar.
