Analyzing Projects

In Analyzing Projects, files for translation are analyzed against a Translation Memory to leverage reusable content and pre-translate files.

To analyze files:

  1. Go to the Projects tab (refer to Opening Projects).
  2. Select the project and click Open Project.

    The Project Files tab appears listing the files for translation.

  3. Click Analyze Project.

    The Project Analyze dialog box appears.

  4. Select the file(s) to be analyzed.
  5. Select the Analysis Options as follows (refer to Configuring Translation Memory):
    1. Select Pretranslate to create translated TXLF files, including the options:

      • % matches: select the percentage of matches to pre-translate

      • Copy all tags on segments when there is no TM match

      • Copy segment source to target when there is no TM match

      • Do nothing

        Note:

      Selecting Pretranslate is an optional step. The percentage defines the minimum leverage required to pretranslate a specific segment.

    2. Select the format for the output report under Report Settings:

      • Show only analysis report summary

      • Export Report: Enter the Report Name, Report Type, Report Location
    3. Translation Memory: select one or more TMs to use during this analysis.
  6. Click Analyze.

    The analysis completes and the Report File appears.
