MT Enhanced using Microsoft Translator

MT Enhanced using Microsoft Translator

Version 1.2

By Patrick Porter

Description

This translation provider uses the Microsoft Translator API, with added features.

Features:

- A user can translate 2M characters/month at no charge after signing up for the Microsoft Translator API.

-The latest version includes the option to skip the Microsoft signup and use the API anonymously, in which case post-edited segments are sent back to Microsoft to train its MT engine.

- The default setting is to not re-send translated segments: only sends segments with a 'Not Translated' segment status; conveniently navigate through your document or review it without increasing your character usage. This is now optional and can be changed in the settings form.

- Option to redact sensitive text (experimental): the ability to create/edit a list of words, names, or other phrases to be excluded from the text sent to Microsoft. The new version includes an editor for creating and editing these files conveniently. You can also specify a different replacement text for each different word/phrase to replace.

- Text-only option: gives you the option of sending and receiving text only, and no tags

-Works in Studio versions 2009 and 2011

    Very neat implementation

    A second great MT provider from Patrick. Has the same useful features he implemented into his Google Translate app. of being able to maintain a list of words you don't want to send to the MT provider for confidentiality reasons and won't keep looking up the segments after you've already translated them.... very useful if Microsoft increase their billing costs.
