Selecting Translation Options

One way to customize translations is to review your current translation options and

change them as necessary. You can then translate the document, spreadsheet,

presentation, or email again to apply your selections to the translation.

To access translation options, click the Translations Options button on the

SYSTRAN Toolbar:

By default, translation options are applied to the entire batch file. To apply them to

selected files, folders, and Web pages, select the files, folders, and Web pages to

which the options will be applied. For more information, see Understanding Batch

Files on page 91.

To select contiguous items in the batch file, click the first item, then hold down

the Shift key and click the last item you want to select; all items between the

two you clicked are selected. To select non-contiguous items, click the first

item; then hold down the Ctrl key and click each additional item you want to

select.

For more information, see Using the Translation Options Button on page 22).

You can click the thumb tack ( ) in the Translation Options window to hide the

window when you’re not using it (see Using the STPM and SMTU Workspace

on page 32).

Using User Dictionaries

Another way to customize translations is by using terms stored in User Dictionaries

and Translation Memory. To access User Dictionaries and Translation Memory, click

the User Dictionaries button on the SYSTRAN Toolbar:

By default, User Dictionaries are applied to the entire batch file. To apply them to

selected files, folders, and Web pages, select those items in the batch file. For more

information, see Using the Dictionaries Button on page 26.
