Specifying Translation Memory Search Settings
Specifying Translation Memory Filters and Applying Penalties
You can specify translation memory search settings.
Select All Language Pairs > Translation Memory and Automated Translation > Search from the navigation tree. The Translation Memory > Search settings are displayed on the right.
Select your required search settings.
You can create translation memory filters and then penalize translation memory lookup results which do not match the filter. For example, if the penalty amount is set at 5%, a lookup result that is an 85% match for the document segment but which does not match the filter would have the penalty applied; as a result the match figure would be reduced to 80%. You can also choose to create a filter which excludes any results that do not match the filter.
To create a translation memory filter, select All Language Pairs > Translation Memory and Automated Translation > Filters from the navigation tree. The Translation Memory > Filter settings are displayed on the right.
Under Filter Penalties, click Add to add a new filter. The Filter dialog box is displayed.
If you want translation units that do not match the filter to have an additional penalty applied, specify the size of the penalty in the Penalty box.
Click Add to add a new condition and open the Add Condition dialog box.
Create the condition and click OK to save it and return to the Filter dialog box.
If you want to add another condition to your filter, click:
Add to add a new condition below the existing condition.
Insert to add a new condition above the existing condition.
If you have added two conditions, you must specify whether both conditions must be satisfied or just one of them:
Select And if both must be satisfied.
Select Or if only one needs to be satisfied.
If you want to negate a condition (put NOT in front of it) select the Not check box for the condition.
Repeat steps 7-9 if you want to add additional conditions.
Click OK to create and apply your filter.
Under Hard Filter, click Edit to add a new filter. The Filter dialog box is displayed.
Click Add to add a new condition and open the Add Condition dialog box.
Create the condition and click OK to save it and return to the Filter dialog box.
If you want to add another condition to your filter, click:
Add to add a new condition below the existing condition.
Insert to add a new condition above the existing condition.
If you have added two conditions, you must specify whether both conditions must be satisfied or just one of them:
Select And if both must be satisfied.
Select Or if only one needs to be satisfied.
If you want to negate a condition (put NOT in front of it) select the Not check box for the condition.

Use the these settings to specify how matching translation units with formatting differences or multiple translations should be penalized.
Select All Language Pairs > Translation Memory and Automated Translation > Penalties from the navigation tree. The Translation Memory > Penalties settings are displayed on the right.
Select your required settings.
You can specify translation memory custom field values to assign to new translation units when updating the translation memory. For example, if the translation memory contains a field called Usage, you could assign the value, Printed Guides to indicate that this translation should only be used for printed guides as opposed to help.

In order to assign custom field values to a translation unit, the custom fields must already exist in the translation memory settings. Click here for instructions on how to create translation memory custom fields. |
