Translate
As you become more comfortable using Trados Studio and discover its feature rich capabilities and functionalities, you may want to extend on its 'inbuilt' features, by installing 'plugins'.
These plugins, will generally fall under the following groupings-
Automated/Machine translation (MT), Reference and Terminology, File Filters and converters,and of course the 'heart' of your translations... Translation Memory (TM).
To help you get the best out of Trados Studio, we have put together a list of the top 5 apps, that we think will be useful for you and made these available to you via the Academic Partner Private AppStore
Each of the following apps is designed to help you in a different area.
Language Weaver Cloud
Language Weaver Cloud is the cloud deployment of the award-winning RWS Machine Translation software that is made for enterprises.
It combines RWS Neural Machine Translation (NMT) capabilities with Linguistic AI
to remove language barriers in content-intensive business functions.
Glossary Converter*
Glossary Converter allows to convert between MultiTerm Termbases and other terminology formats by simple drag and drop, with minimal user interaction.
It supports sdltb, xls, xlsx, csv, txt, tbx, utx, glo, multiterm export files and tmx.
Studio Subtitling
The volume of audio visual content for localization is growing rapidly. Turnaround times are getting shorter and many of those working in the industry are feeling increased price pressures in dealing with this sort of content.
Translation tools today lack proper context for subtitlers, offering poor support for the variety of file formats.
.
Web LookUp*
The Web Lookup plugin for Studio allows the user to select text in the source or target language of the translation and run an internet search without the need to leave Trados Studio or use a separate browser.
IATE Real-Time Terminology
IATE is the EU's terminology database, that you are now able to access using the RWS IATE plugin.
This is perhaps the most comprehensive terminology database that can be freely accessed- benefiting from multiple domains and the ability to even select the term type.
TIP
Plugins marked with an 'asterix' are designed and created by third party developers.
