Wordfast Pro 3 is a Java-based translation and editing application designed to improve the way in which translators work. It presents translators with a collaborative environment where translation memory (TM) files can be accessed quickly and efficiently. Wordfast Pro 3 is a flexible application that can work with desktop TM files or interact directly with a powerful TM server application. It can also operate as a stand-alone tool to supplement existing translation workflows.
The key advantages of Wordfast Pro 3 are as follows:
TM compatibility: Tabular TM format allows for simple integration of Trados, SDLX, Translation Memory eXchange, or Déjà Vu TM files.
Format flexibility: Native format is TXML, an XML-based pivot format. Filters exist for DOC, PPT, XLS, PDF, HTML, MIF, INX, JSP, RC, TMX, and TTX files. Wordfast Pro 3 supports only those TTX files that are translated and segmented using tag editor.
Collaborative environment: Users can interact with TM Server and share translation memory assets in real-time.
Automated editing: Multi-lingual spell checkers and terminology recognition improves the speed and accuracy in the review process.
Administrative security: Managers can assign specific rights and privileges to individual translators or linguistic teams.
Wordfast Pro 3 provides an intuitive, collaborative environment where translators can deliver higher quality in-language content with greater consistency and efficiency.
