Translation Management System 10

Let’s go through the key features built:


  • Microsoft Word Plug-in
    A custom Microsoft Word translation plug-in was developed with a dedicated translation tab that allowed users to manage all translation activities directly inside Word.
  • Configuration File Support
    Users can upload and load a configuration file containing JSON data as part of the document format for quick setup and secure access.
  • Translation Memory (TM) Module
    The system includes a translation memory management software module with two sub-sections:
  • Leverage
    Users can search selected keywords and get both exact and partial matches quickly, helping them reuse previous translations efficiently.
  • Concordance
    Users can search using exact or partial options while selecting source and target language settings for better translation accuracy.
  • Glossary Module
    A built-in glossary management tool for translators allows users to filter terms using source and target language selections for consistent translations across projects.
  • API-Integrated Translation System
    The system uses translation API integration to retrieve translated data directly inside Microsoft Word, reducing dependency on external tools.
  • Smart Search
    Users can quickly find content using search keys and instantly access matched translation results.
