    Description
    In this course, the focus will be on how to set up different options in memoQ so as to handle different file types, such as .doc, .xls, .html, .idml, etc. properly. Explanation will be given on how to use various filters available in order to deal with different text markups. Resource console will be explained. You will learn how to best prepare your projects before you even start working on them. Each case will be dealt with practically, with examples.

    We will follow a life cycle of documents processed with memoQ and explain in more detail the following options:

  • Segmentation rules (defining your own rules to better match the specifics of the source language and improve translation memory results)
  • Numbers – how to deal with different number formats
  • Filters (markup text is dealt with easily with proper filters. Setting the right ones and saving your preferences for future use or sharing)
  • Term base options – detailed look (term extraction feature, multiple term bases, entering new terms, importing bilingual glossaries)
  • Translation memories and LiveDocs – options, similarities, differences, how to make the best of them
  • Translating only specific columns in Excel files
  • Setting the string length (useful when translating online ads, banners, etc.)

    Hi,
    I registered last-minute and didn't get the e-mail with the link for joining the webinar (yes, I did check the spam folder). I hope I'll at least receive a link to watch the recording?
    Thanks in advance for a quick feedback
    Tanja

    Hi Tanja,

    I am really sorry to hear this. I will contact the staff now and let them now about the issue so they could send you the recorded version. In the meantime, I will send you the presentation (which is a very short fragment of what was actually said in the webinar), but it may give you an idea of what it was all about.

    Čedomir
