- 1. Tips „n‟ Tricks/Masterclass The 2014 Language Technology Platform SDL Proprietary and Confidential
- 2. Agenda • Working with the Ribbon • Pimp My Studio! • Aligning Files with no Editor • Maximising the SDLXLIFF • Post-Edit Compare • Translation Memories • Creating Quotes
- 3. Working with the Ribbon How to make the most of it… 3
- 4. Working with the Ribbon…. • First of all…. is it really that big? – … a tad bigger… but now you have access to more options and you won‟t see this anymore! – … and you can minimise it! 4
- 5. Working with the Ribbon…. • Project Settings vs Tools Options – Now takes a traditional Office approach • Project Settings are on the Ribbon in every view • Tools -> Options, as they are Global Settings, are in the File -> Options Tools -> Options Project Settings 5
- 6. Working with the Ribbon…. • Alt+ keyboard shortcuts for activating menu commands • Direct Access to detailed group options 6
- 7. Working with the Ribbon…. • Keyboard shortcuts you already know from 2009/2011… also on the tooltips • And of course if you are power user you can Ctrl+F1 to minimise/maximise the ribbon altogether 7
- 8. Working with the Ribbon…. • A few changes we had to make…. – Alt+2 to select the second translation for example will now activate the second command in the quick access toolbar – So these are now Ctrl+Nr. by default instead of Alt+Nr. 8
- 9. Working with the Ribbon…. • The display filter could not fit on the Home View so it now rests on the Review Ribbon • Ways to quickly access it – Keyboard Shortcuts • Ctrl+F6 takes you straight to the search dialogue • Ctrl+Shift+F6 opens the display filter drop down • Ctrl+Alt+F6 resets the filters – Mouse click • Shows the filter state and can be clicked to bring up the Active Display Filter 9
- 10. More on working with the Ribbon Demonstration 1
- 11. Pimp My Studio! Making Studio 2014 your own…. 1
- 12. Pimp My Studio!…. • The SDK/API has been updated to allow developers to create their own ribbons, navigation panes and additional menu items to run custom actions • In addition there are two simple changes everyone can make using a couple of free OpenExchange Applications – Menu maker – from Tom Imhof at localix.biz – yourSDLStudio – from SDL 12
- 14. Aligning Files with no Editor Using Studio as the Editor 1
- 15. Aligning Files with no Editor…. • Basic principle – Align your files – Create a Studio Project with the original source files • Add missing translations, correct revised texts and confirm automated/fuzzy matches 15
- 16. Alignment… working without an Editor Demonstration 1
- 17. Maximising the SDLXLIFF How to get more with the information stored inside 1
- 18. Maximising the SDLXLIFF…. • Have you ever tried to do things like these… – Clear all segments in a Bilingual Doc Project before starting work? – Search & Replace non-recognised date formats across an entire project in the source? – Lock table contents, or other information based on the Document Structure Information, throughout a Project prior to starting the translation? • If you have then you‟re gonna love this! 18
- 20. Maximising the SDLXLIFF…. • Clear all segments in a Bilingual Doc Project before starting work? 20
- 21. Maximising the SDLXLIFF…. • Search & Replace non-recognised date formats across an entire project in the source? 21
- 22. Maximising the SDLXLIFF…. • Lock table contents, or other information based on the Document Structure Information, throughout a Project prior to starting the translation? 22
- 24. Post-Edit Compare Analysing post-edit effort…. 2
- 25. Post-Edit Compare… • When you use Machine Translation you can't easily see where the differences between the suggested translation and a good translation are. 25
- 26. If you can‟t see it can you cost it?... 1 of 3 • Post-edit analysis? – Simple solution, based on some kind of science – A 58% post-edit analysis may not be the same as a 58% fuzzy because no information is provided to help the translator at the start – You don‟t know it was a 58% match until after the work is done • Simple fixed rate… 50-100% of normal “no match” rate? – Good approach but may not be the same for every project • Quality of the MT output affects the effort • Approach of each translator may vary, so test and verify often • Needs a trusting relationship with the translator to ensure – Fair compensation for the translator – Good PE techniques to ensure desired quality – You can estimate the cost before you start 26
- 27. If you can‟t see it can you cost it?... 2 of 3 • Hourly rate? – Another simple solution, but not based on any science – Quality of the MT output affects the effort and cost – Approach of each translator may vary, so test and verify often • Good PE techniques to ensure desired quality – Needs a trusting relationship with the translator to ensure – Compensation • Fair compensation for the translator • Fair cost for the work giver – Harder to estimate the costs before you start 27
- 28. If you can‟t see it can you cost it?... 3 of 3 • Productivity measures? – Measure the productivity of individual translators • Varies from project to project and translator to translator • Quality of MT output affects productivity • Maybe useful for large projects as you need to measure continually • Useful historical records for small jobs – Can form the basis of an estimate • Other methods based on measuring the MT output – Perhaps… maybe not refined enough yet? 28
- 29. Post-Edit Compare… solving the post edit analysis 29
