• Selecting a dictionary under a domain activates the entries from that domain in that
dictionary.
• Selecting/uns electing a domain automatically selects/unselects all dictionary entries
under that domain.
• The “general” domain at the top of the tree view contains all entries that have not been
assigned to a specific domain. This domain includes the SYSTRAN Main Dictionary,
which cannot be unselected.
Changing the Order of the Domains and Dictionaries
Use the keys to set the order the dictionaries and domains are used in:
1. Select a domain or dictionary to move.
2. Click the keys to move the selected item up or down in priority order.
• Items can only be moved within the same the same tree level.
• Multiple items can be selected and moved within the same tree level.
• If you select a domain to move, its included dictionaries will move with it.
The order in which the software will use the domains and dictionaries on your PC during
translation is determined as follows:
• Domains are used in the order in which you place them.
• Within a domain, dictionaries are used in the order in which you place them.
The numbers at the bottom of the dialog box indicate how many UDs, TMs, and
NDs are currently active.
Translation Choice Files
Translation choice files are resources built in STPM to store the user choices made in STPM
review panes. These files rearrange choices for alternative meanings, source ambiguities,
and translation memory choices. Once defined, Translation Choices can be used in any other
context (like User Dictionaries), and will automatically apply user choices on any sentence
when possible. For instance, a user can choose a preferred alternative meaning for a word
and know that this meaning will always be applied.
You can indicate the TCs you wish to apply to your translation task by ticking the checkbox
associated with a Translation Choice file.
