    Clementine Tissier
     

    It’s nearly been a month now since the launch of SDL’s brand-new website SDL AppStore and I’ve already received some great feedback about its new design and how easy it […]

  • Managing your SDL Plugins…

    Paul
     
    The SDL Appstore is growing!  At the time of writing this article there are 161 apps on the store and over 220 thousand downloads from our users.  This is quite impressive and we are still only getting started as the number of APIs available for developers increases.  At the moment, in Studio alone we have APIs that allow a developer to do these sorts of things: create new filetypes ( TXML ), or customise existing…

  • InSource! Bringing in your source content

    Paul
     
    “ Workflow ” and “ Automation “.  Terms that are normally used (in our world) when talking about a TMS (Translation Management System).  So when working with tools like SDL WorldServer and SDL TMS which are provide a high degree of customisation, both using the user interface and/or through the API (Application Programming Interface).  For example, in SDL WorldServer you could create a workflow that automated the process…

  • Committing the cardinal sin…

    Paul
     
    Strong words… “ Committing the Cardinal Sin “! I can remember from my early days with SDL many interesting, and often frustrating conversations with the then Product Manager for MultiTerm.  The almost religious use of phrases like “You can’t use spreadsheets for terminology”… “It only takes a few steps to be able to create a simple glossary with MultiTerm”… “You can’t properly export a MultiTerm termbase to Excel”……

  • Tinkering with tradition… APIs in Studio 2015 SR2

    Paul
     
    If you regularly read the articles I write you may have noticed that I like to talk about the SDL OpenExchange a lot.  I write articles about some of the cool applications that are available to users of the SDL Language Platform (Studio, MultiTerm, GroupShare, Passolo etc.)  I see this platform in a similar way (albeit a smaller scale) to an I-Phone or an Android phone… the core features are already there in the products…

  • Using the SDL Community

    Paul
     
    Last week I spent a few days in Amsterdam talking community with a group of SDL people.  We were there to see how we can shape the community and make it a place where anyone using our products, or just thinking about using them, will be able to find what they need, talk about them or just share experiences in a safe friendly environment.  Actually it’s a lot more than a safe friendly environment… it’s the only place where…

  • Recording Translation Memory metadata

    Paul
     
    Back in July 2013 I wrote an article called “ Fields and Attributes in Studio ” which was all about adding different types of metadata to your Translation Units every time you confirmed a segment to make it easier, or more complex depending on what you’ve done, to manage your Translation Memories.  If you’re not sure what I mean by this take a look at the article as I won’t repeat a lot of that here… at least I’ll try…

  • Paying it forward with MS Publisher files

    Paul
     
    If you’ve never come across Microsoft Publisher before then here’s a neat explanation from wikipedia. “ Microsoft Publisher is an entry-level desktop publishing application from Microsoft, differing from Microsoft Word in that the emphasis is placed on page layout and design rather than text composition and proofing.” It’s actually quite a neat application for newbies to desktop publishing like me, but it’s a difficult…
