How to Verify the Translation

This topic describes how to verify a translation for the active document in the Editor view. Verification is automatically performed on a segment when you confirm a translation. If there is an error in the translation, one of the following icons is displayed in the segment status column and details of the error are displayed in the Messages window:

: Error
: Warning

You can also verify all translations in the document at the same time.

To verify all translations in the active document:

Activate or deactivate the QA Checker and/or Terminology verification plug-ins for use during verification:

Select Project > Project Settings from the menu bar. The Project Settings dialog box is displayed.
Select Verification from the navigation tree. The Verification settings are displayed on the right.
If you want to use the QA Checker 3.0 and/or Terminology Verifier verification plug-ins, select the check box next to each to activate them. Clear the check box to deactivate the plug-ins.

Activate or deactivate the Tag Verification plug-in for use during verification:

Select File Types from the navigation tree and then select the file type for which you want to perform verification.
Under the file type you selected, select Tag verification from the navigation tree. The Tag Verification settings are displayed on the right.

NOTE	Tag verification is not available for all file types.

If you want to use the Tag Verification plug-in, select the Enable tag verification check box to activate tag verification. Clear this check box to deactivate tag verification.

In the Editor view, select Tools > Verify from the menu bar or press F8. The active document is checked using the available verifiers. A process dialog box is displayed. When the verification is complete, any errors found in the document are automatically displayed in the Messages window.
Double-click on a message in the Messages window to go to the translation where the error occurred.
Make changes to the translation to correct the error and then confirm the segment by pressing Ctrl+Enter to verify the segment again.

NOTE	If there are no verifiers available for the file type, a message is displayed and the verification process stops.
