Introduction
Functions of ATLAS
Explains ATLAS translation functions and their supplementary functions.
■ ATLAS translation functions
ATLAS is equipped with various translation functions.
■ Translation support functions
ATLAS is equipped with the following functions for supporting translation.
●
Dictionaries
ATLAS analyzes words and grammatical information in the dictionaries to create translated
text. ATLAS provides the following three types of dictionaries:
● "Standard Dictionary" which is provided as the default dictionary
● "Technical Dictionaries" listing technical terms for different fields
● "User Dictionaries" to which users can add words and translations
The "User Dictionaries" includes "Common Dictionaries" which can be shared by multiple
users.
●
Translation Memory
Using the ATLAS Translation Memory increases work efficiency when translating or creating
large amounts of manuals and technical documents with a common sentence style. The
translations created by users are stored and accumulated in the Translation Memory as
translation memory items. They are automatically retrieved from the Translation Memory and
displayed the next time similar sentences are translated.
Reusing these stored translation memory items helps to minimize the correction work,
increasing translation efficiency.
●
Assistance
To obtain better translations, ATLAS is equipped with functions to find typos in the original
text (spell check) and to divide sentences into independent clauses with meaning (sentence
division).
Function Explanation
Translation Editor Translates by comparing original and translated text. You can load
documents such as word files directly, edit loaded documents and
translation results, and reflect translation results without changing
layout of the original document. In this way, Translation Editor
increases efficiency of the translation process. From Translation
Editor, you can start Translation Memory, which allows you to
compare text to data stored in the translation memory.
Application Translation ATLAS can translate a document that has been opened by another
application such as Microsoft Word or Excel in collaboration with
those applications.
