Description |
Usage |
| Check for clean document |
Checks whether the document was completely cleaned by SDL Trados or Wordfast |
Use to verify that the document contains no Trados/Wordfast formatting (i.e. in headers/footers, clean-up error formatting, etc.) and no hidden text |
| Configure clean-up/restore rule |
Configures Word's Find/Replace dialogue for manual clean-up, restoring of source text, or swapping source and target text |
Use to clean-up sections that are not cleaned by Trados (i.e. headers and footers, text boxes, etc); to restore source text in an uncleaned document; to swap source and target text in order to clean up into a reverse translation memory |
| Copy all selected text (clipboard) |
Copies selected text (including hidden text) to clipboard |
Use if you need to copy the entire contents of the selection (i.e. with hidden text). For example, you may copy bilingual segmented text (i.e. with source and target text) in order to include in your glossary, etc. |
| Paste unformatted text (clipboard) |
Pastes text without formatting from Windows clipboard |
Use to paste text into the current open segment so that the formatting of the pasted text matches the formatting of the open segment |
| Internal text copy&paste commands |
Works as a replacement for Windows clipboard for copying and pasting of text between segments |
Use to work around a limitation of Trados/Wordfast which makes it impossible to use Windows clipboard when a segment is closed or opened |
| Set variable row height |
Removes fixed row height setting from selected table cells |
Allows to translate text in fixed-height rows using SDL Trados or Wordfast Classic |
| Quick-clean the document |
Cleans the document quickly without need for using Trados Translator's Workbench |
Allows to clean small documents - emails, memos, etc. Useful if you are using Trados and Word together. |
