Filtering in Pop-up Editor


You can filter by:

  • All
  • All except ICE
  • All except ICE and 100%
  • ICE Only
  • 100% Only
  • Repeated
  • Repetitions
  • All worked on segments

You can now download several jobs as one single translation kit.

The kit is contained in one single zip file that includes one bilingual file, one TM file and one terminology file.

You can then upload the updated content as one single zip file.

Exporting Frequent Segments

You can now export repetitions when working offline. The repetitions can be saved into a TM and then leveraged against the existing project by updating the leverage and the word count.

The result is 100% matches.

Select Include Repeated Segments as Separate File when setting your offline download options.


Opening GlobalSight Documentation

You can now open this GlobalSight User Documentation library by clicking Documentation in the main menu.

Text formatting is now supported when translators are editing text in the target segment.

Translators can now use the standard text formatting options:

  • Bold
  • Italic
  • Underline
  • Superscript
  • Subscript

You can now add and remove tags as needed. The target no longer needs to have the same tags as the source.

The feature is available for both FM and docx files.

IDML support for InDesign CS6

IDML files are now fully supported with Adobe InDesign CS6.

Enhanced Inline Editor

GlobalSight's Inline Editor now provides much of the functionality as the previously more advanced Pop-up Editor.

Inline Editor works faster and the GUI is familiar to users working with Trados.

Automatic Export of Target Files

The export works in the same way as clicking Export in the Job Details page.
