STAR Campus - Unpack and get going
Thanks to Transit’s Project Package Files (PPF) and Translation Package Files (TPF), the exchange of projects between client and translator has become child's play. PPFs and TPFs are compressed archives that contain the files to be translated, dictionaries, reference material, and much more. In this webinar, you will learn what these files contain and how to work with them.
And the winner is... (1 of 2)
On the 6th of march, we published our first poll to ask users what features they would like to see most in new Service Packs or versions of Transit NXT. The feedback was great and we would like to say a big Thank you to all of our readers who participated. The poll closed yesterday and here are the results.
Indesign CC files in Transit NXT
With the latest update for Service Pack 7, you can translate InDesign CC files in Transit NXT. For data exchange with Transit, new InDesign Gate plug-ins are available for InDesign CC (Mac and Windows).
Translation Technology: What's there and we don't know it
Some of you might have participated in the eCPD webinar series "Translation Technology -- What's Missing and What Has Gone Wrong" presented by Jost Zetsche. During the first webinar, Jost Zetsche compiled a kind of wish list based on the requests for features of CAT users. He then passed on the long list of proposals to more than 20 translation technology vendors.
Short cuts – Nº 16 : Import options - importing specific paragraph styles
The import option that we will see today is very useful for project managers. Imagine you've received a huge file from a client, but are asked to translate only some parts of it. You might consider the option of copying the part to be translated to another file and later copying back the translation into the original file which might be risky or not possible at all for advanced file formats like Adobe FrameMaker, for example. The new Service Pack brings an excellent solution for this! You as a project manager can import the entire file in Transit, you just have to tell Transit what needs to be translated and Transit will take care of the rest for you.
