Is this possible?

If yes, does this automatically create a TM to be used for new translations?



Thanks in advance.

Grace.

Aligning in Wordfast Mar 1, 2003

Hi Graciela,



You need PlusTools to align in Wordfast. It\'s freeware you can download at http://www.champollion.net/. Read the PlusTools manual before starting. Aligning isn\'t easy in any CAT-tool.



Regards,

Gerard

Use PlusTools Mar 1, 2003

Like Wordfast, the software is written by Yves Champollion. Just go to http://www.champollion.net/ and click on the tab +tools. After downloading read the PlusTools.doc - and you\'ll see.

Thanks Carlos. Glad you like the page.

For Grace. Actually, if you have to fiddle arround with TMs, I would suggest you learn a little bit about how a wordfast TM works, and what it is made of.



When you know some about the cog and wheels (very easy in fact) you will get a lot more out of your CAT, and it will be a lot easier to do stuff.
