User’s Guide SYSTRAN 5.0 22
SYSTRAN 5.0 uses a statistical method to auto-detect source languages. For
this reason, there may be times when the source language is either not
identified correctly or not identified at all. Auto Detect is automatic with STPM.
Using the Target Language Drop-Down List
The Target Language drop-down list lets you select the target language that
SYSTRAN 5.0 will translate to. The target languages available in this drop-down list
depend on the languages you installed during the SYSTRAN 5.0 installation
procedure and the source language you selected. For example, if you have Russian
as the source language, the only target language you can select is English.
Using the Translate Button
After you select the target and source languages, click the Translate button ( ) to
initiate the translation. You can then examine the translation and fine-tune it, if
desired, using the buttons to the right of the Target Language drop-down list.
Using the Translation Options Button
After you perform a translation, you can review your current translation options and
change them as necessary. To access translation options, click the Translations
Options button on the SYSTRAN Toolbar
.
The Translation Options window appears with a variety of translation settings you can
use to modify translations. The options that appear vary by application and the source
and target languages selected. Figure 2 shows an example of the Translation Options
window. Table 8 describes the settings that can appear in the window.
Because Translation Options vary by application and source and target
languages, some options in Table 8
may not be available.
