Chapter 9 Using the Common Dictionary

Basics Try Using ATLAS
■ Other issues
You cannot create a common dictionary (the [Common Dictionary] tab does not
appear)
•Cause
If the Common Folder has not been set, you cannot create common dictionaries.
If the Common Folder has been created on another PC or for some other reason you cannot
access the Common Folder, you cannot create common dictionaries. (If you click the [Create]
button under the [Dictionary Settings] tab of the [Detail Settings] dialog box, the [Common
Dictionary] tab does not appear.)
• Solution
To determine if there is a problem with the network, attempt to use Windows Explorer to
access the Common Folder.
With the common dictionary function installed, starting/quitting ATLAS takes time
•Cause
When you install the common dictionary function, starting/quitting ATLAS takes time because
checks for and downloading of common dictionaries on the Common Folder takes place.
In addition, if you have created the Common Folder on other PC or there is a problem with
the network, it may also take time.
• Solution
To determine if there is a problem with the network, attempt to use Windows Explorer to
access the Common Folder.
If there are many common dictionaries or the common dictionary file size is large, delete
unnecessary common dictionaries.
Even when common dictionaries are used, translation results differ from those done
on another PC.
•Cause
The priority of the downloaded common dictionary ( :Pink icon) cannot be set higher than
user dictionary using the up arrow ( ▲ ) of the [Detail Settings] dialog box.
For that reason, the translation result may differ when only common dictionaries are used
and when both user dictionaries and common dictionaries are used.
• Solution
Move the user dictionaries from the [Dictionaries Used in Translation] box in the [Detail
Settings] dialog box to the [List of Available Dictionaries] box to make them unavailable for
translation.
If translation is done by a group, in addition to the type and priority of dictionaries in the
[Dictionaries Used in Translation] box, translation style settings, etc. must also match. (see
