Dear Tanja,
Thank you very much for sharing your feedback with the proz.com community and us. All feedback from our users is most welcome. We would like to take this opportunity to explain and correct some of the comments:

In XTM, Concordance opens in a pop-up window, a new window or in a panel docked at the bottom of the Editor screen. When opened in the docked panel, concordance opens with a terminology recognition window to the right. You can drag the vertical line between concordance and terminology sections to adjust the space to your needs. There’s no need for you to leave the Editor to work on your Concordance searches.

The reasons for not receiving previous translations as fuzzy matches can be various. The best way would be to check if your segments have not been saved with a “Not approved” status, while your TM might be relying only on the “Approved” segment statuses. It is also recommended to check if the project you are working on has not been created for a different customer than the customer whose TM you’re using. If these steps won’t bring the desired effect you can contact our support team to help you boost XTM performance.

XTM boasts a user-friendly and easily accessible spellchecking tool. Spelling is checked automatically when you exit a segment. To spell check all the target segments, click the ABC icon. Your translations are checked for spelling using one of the 90 plus different language dictionaries. The text is checked for formatting, punctuation and localization. You can also run objective tests on the quality of translation using the linguistic quality assessment (LQA) functionality.

Currently, there are two special spaces supported by XTM: no-break space (accessible via the shortcut combination Ctrl+Shift+Space) and zero-width space (you can create a shortcut combination using the ‘spanner’ icon in the left-hand side icon bar); they are displayed as {sp} and {zwsp}.

It is possible to preview the translation before sending it back to your client. You can preview it by either using the preview icon from the translation editor, which is on the left-hand icon bar, or by going to the context menu of the project you’re working on, then to Manage files, where you’ll be able to generate the latest version of the files, download it and open it in your MS Word. You can also view it in a PDF format.

We would also like to emphasise that on our website ( [url removed] ) you can find plenty of materials and guidance regarding how to tailor our system to your needs.

Kind regards,

XTm International
