Two Translation Methods
Two methods of translation are available with SYSTRAN Mobile: translations
performed within the confines of the application tools, and those performed “On-the-
Fly” using the SYSTRAN Button feature. The results garnered from each method are
identical, however differ substantially in their use and execution.
Application-based Translation
Application-based translations are those that are performed directly within the
SYSTRAN Mobile application tools: Translator and Dictionary Lookup. This method
of translation requires the direct input of the content to be translated into the
appropriate tool.
“On-the-Fly” Translation
The “On-the-Fly” translation method is a means for directly translating content that is
residing in other applications. “On-the-Fly” translations are performed using the
SYSTRAN Button which displays at the top of the Pocket PC screen whenever the
application is running. Using the SYSTRAN Button you can select source text from
virtually any Windows Mobile application and
immediately translate it without needing
to paste it into the Source field of the Translator or Dictionary Lookup.
