Reviewer Scorecard

Reviewers can now rate the work of the translator. The ratings can then be summarized in the Scorecard Report.

Rating is available in four different categories:

  • Terminology
  • Spelling and Grammar
  • Style
  • Consistency

A new Scorecard tab shows on the Job Details page.

Shorter File Name for the Translation Kit

The length of the file name for single jobs has been shortened by removing the target languages.

The shorter naming is now the default, but you can toggle it on and off by clicking Include language information in downloaded zip file name on the Select Files to Download page.

ICE and 100% Matches Distinguished in Offline Reports

ICE and 100% matches are now separated from each other in the TM match column in both the Reviewer Comment Report and Translations Edit Report:

OmegaT: Color Coding for ICE and 100% Matches

ICE and 100% matches are now color coded when translating offline with OmegaT. Both now appear in orange.

Color coding is retained throughout the life-cycle of the activity. The color coding no longer applies when you change the match.

Office 2010 Extractor and Filter Improvements - Continued

GlobalSight is continuously improving the way that Office 2010 documents (DOCX, XSLX, and PPTX) are extracted and filtered. The aim is to improve overall extraction performance and help to distinguish between formatting and styling tags. This reduces confusion in how the tags are managed without corrupting final files.

Known limitation:

You may find that the total number of pages of some Word documents differs from the actual number of pages shown in Word 2010. The reason for this is that Word stores the wrong page counts in app.xml.

To identify the pages stored in app.xml:

  1. Right-click the Word document and select Properties
  2. Open the Details tab
  3. Check the value next to Pages in the Content section

To identify the real pages:

  1. Open the document with MS Word 2010
  2. Click Home->Info
  3. Check the value next to Pages in the Properties section

To correct the total pages:

  1. Open the document with MS Word 2010
  2. Open the Review tab
  3. Click Word Count in the ribbon
  4. Close Word Count
  5. Save the document - without editing

Shortened File Names for Offline Reports

The number of characters in the file names of the Translation Edit Report and the Reviewers Comment Report has been reduced for more convenient use.

The file names have been abbreviated to the following:

  • TER-<job name>-date.xlsx
  • RCR-<job name>-date.xlsx

No additional configuration is needed.

Office 2010 Extractor and Filter Improvements - Continued

GlobalSight is continuously improving the way that Office 2010 documents (DOCX, XSLX, and PPTX) are extracted and filtered. The aim is to improve overall extraction performance and help to distinguish between formatting and styling tags. This reduces confusion in how the tags are managed without corrupting final files.

The text order in PPTX files is now correct. All of the main text is now downloaded into one single file instead of several. The next file then contains the headers, footers and so on.

PDF Color Preview for INDD and IDML Files

You can now view both INDD and IDML files when using the View PDF and Create PDF previews in Pop-up Editor.

You can set the three different colors that are displayed for 100%, ICE and non-100%/ICE matches. Click Options in Pop-up Editor or Account Options in My Account.

New versions of INDD converters are available:

  • Adobe CS4 Converter - Version 8.5.3
  • Adobe CS5 Converter - Version 8.5.3
  • Adobe CS5.5 Converter - Version 8.5.3

Automatic Download/Upload of the Reviewers Comments Report and the Translation Edit Report

The Reviewers Comments Report and the Translations Edit Report can now be downloaded by another system, before being uploaded and imported back into GlobalSight.

The Reviewers Comments Report is called for review only tasks and the Translations Edit Report for all other tasks.

Re-submitting Job Creation Failures

You can now click Re-create in My Jobs - Pending to re-try jobs that have not been created properly. Contact your admin for the permission needed.

GlobalSight backs up the source files, cancels the failed job, and then creates the job again using the same job ID, job name and file paths.

You cannot re-create jobs for which the source file request number is less than the source file number. A warning message pops up.

Improved Downloads Page

The functionality and usability of the Select Files to Download page that opens when downloading files have been improved:

  • You can now download the files for one, several or even all languages
  • You can expand and collapse the view of the files
  • You can download the file selected as a zip or click Return to go back to the previous page

PDF Creation from Job Details

Users can now create PDFs for IDML files directly from the job details page, rather than from inside the online editors.

PDF creation is now more user friendly and quicker, since users no longer need to launch the editors.

Job details


Downloading Multiple Target Files

  1. Project Managers can now batch download the target files for multiple jobs at once from My Jobs. Any locales that are not yet fully translated are downloaded in the source language
    My Jobs

  2. Project Managers can now also batch download the files from multiple locales from the job details page
    Job details

Right-click Shortcut from My Activities and My Jobs

Users can now jump straight to the details for a certain activity by right-clicking it in My Activities and My Jobs.

Number of Workflows Exporting

Project Managers and company admin users can now check the number of workflows that are currently exporting on their home page.

Office 2010 Extractor and Filter Improvements

GlobalSight is continuously improving the way that Office 2010 documents (DOCX, XSLX, and PPTX) are extracted and filtered. The aim is to improve overall extraction performance and help to distinguish between formatting and styling tags. This reduces confusion in how the tags are managed without corrupting final files.

This first phase is the Beta Office 2010 Filter, for DOCX only. The new filter can filter and extract style tags to allow more flexibility on editing. The new filter is being pushed out slowly to avoid creating more tags.

The text order in PPTX files is now correct. All of the main text is now downloaded into one single file instead of several. The next file then contains the headers, footers and so on.

Non-Java File Uploading

  1. Users can now create jobs with or without the usual Java applet. The Java applet is convenient, but some users face various Java security issues when using this method
    • Users that have Java issues can now select the non-applet version by clicking Data Sources->Create Job without Java
      Pm186.jpg

    • Upload the files one at a time or zip them
      Pm185.jpg

  2. Users can now download jobs without using the applet. Files are zipped for download

New DoMT Connector

GlobalSight can now connect with the new Do Machine Translation (DoMT) MT Engine from Precision Translation Tools.

Improved Notifications

  • Job comments are now included in the notification emails that are sent for a project
  • The word count is included in the notification email sent to reviewers

Job details


Language code in the Reviewers Comments Report File Name

The language code is now appended to the name of the Reviewers Comments Report file.

As a review coordinator, you no longer need to open the report to check the correct person to send the report to.

Pm189.jpg


Tabbed Browsing

Users can now safely open GlobalSight in additional browser tabs to perform multiples actions at the same time. For example, Project Managers can now keep working while waiting for files to upload in one tab.

Using tabs no longer risks unwanted actions to be performed accidentally.

Job details


Compact Tags Setting at the Project Level in the Reviewers Comments Report

Users can now select whether to include compact tags in the Reviewers Comments Report at the project level, for cases in which the report is sent automatically when the activity is accepted.

Tagging is hidden by default and was previously added when users generated the report.
