Functions of ATLAS

Explains ATLAS translation functions and their supplementary functions.
ATLAS translation functions
ATLAS is equipped with various translation functions.
Function Explanation
Translation Editor Translates by comparing original and translated text. You can load
documents such as word files directly, edit loaded documents and translation results, and reflect translation results without changing layout of the original document.

From Translation Editor, you can start Translation Memory, which allows you to compare text to data stored in the translation memory.
Application Translation ATLAS can translate a document that has been opened by another
application such as Microsoft Word or Excel in collaboration with
those applications. Web Translation Translates a Web page on Internet Explorer. Mail Translation Translates E-mail. Clipboard Translation Translates the copied text on the clipboard. Key Type T ranslation You can translate text without lifting your hands from your keyboard. Mouse Translation Translates sentences you want to translate on a Web page or on
applications by simply clicking the mouse.

The "User Dictionaries" includes "Common Dictionaries" which can be shared by multiple users.
Translation Memory
Using the ATLAS Translation Memory increases work efficiency when translating or creating large amounts of manuals and technical documents with a common sentence style. The translations created by users are stored and accumulated in the Translation Memory as translation memory items. They are automatically retrieved from the Translation Memory and displayed the next time similar sentences are translated. Reusing these stored translation memory items helps to minimize the correction work, increasing translation efficiency.
Assistance
To obtain better translations, ATLAS is equipped with functions to find typos in the original text (spell check) and to divide sentences into independent clauses with meaning (sentence division).

Functions of ATLAS
Translation Environment Settings
You can set dictionaries used and translation styles as the translation environment for each type of document to be translated (Thesis, Letter/Mail, Contract, etc) to obtain better translations.
Reading Option
When Microsoft Agent is installed, the ATLAS speech function can read text aloud during Web Translation, Translation Editor or other ATLAS functions.
Internet Update
Internet Update allows you to download the latest user dictionaries that can be used with ATLAS and product plug-ins from the ATLAS Internet Update Web page and integrate them with your existing ATLAS environment to further improve your translation results.
Collaboration with ATLAS Translation Server
If you install the ATLAS Translation Server on a server machine, its translation engine can be used for translation. This enables dictionaries to be shared, resulting in uniform translation quality.

Utilizing Translation Memory [Translation Memory]

The results of translation and corrections produced with ATLAS can be stored as translation examples in the translation memory (in user dictionaries). Translation examples stored in translation memory are used to translate similar sentences in manuals, etc., increasing work efficiency.
What is translation memory?

Translation memory item
Introduction
Revised manual
Stored translation memory items can be used repeatedly in future
A [translation memory] database stores translation examples consisting of paired original and translated strings. Translation memory items are referenced by the translation memory and used during subsequent translation work when there are similar sentences. With this function, when manuals and technical documents are revised and the original sentences are utilized and only partially changed, the stored translation memory items are re­used to maintain translation quality and facilitate efficient translation work. The translation memory is used according to the degree to which source text and the data in translation memory match, which is referred to as the match value. The match value is set using the [Match Value of Used Translation Memory] setting in the [Translation Memory] tab in the Translation Environment Settings. It is set to "100%" by default. You can use the Translation memory to check match conditions between source text in stored translation memory data and the original text.
• Ex : [Original text to be translated] [What do you think of this plan?]
Match value Original text Translated text
[100 Match] [87 Match] [47 Match]
What do you think of this plan? What do you think of my plan? When do you plan to leave for To kyo?
この計画を ど う 思いますか ? 私の計画を ど う思い ま すか ? いつ東京へ出発の予定ですか ?

Introduction
計画をど
Mechanism of translation memory function
ATLAS-generated translation text is output in the following order.
When there is a completed sentence in the translation memory that is the same as the original text, the stored translation memory item is output (indicated in blue). There is no need for review, increasing translation efficiency.
When data partially match, the translation memory item that meets or exceeds the specified match value is output (indicated in orange). Usually, only simple corrections are required.
No matches in translation memory; the result of automatic translation is displayed (indicated in black).

Translation begins. When there are translation memory items stored in the translation memory that match the original text (in accordance wi th th e tran slat ion match v alue se ttin g), th ey are displayed as follows.
(1) 100% Match (uses translation memory)
Introduction
(2) Fuzzy Match [<100%] (uses translation memory)
(3) No Translation memory items that can be used (Automatic Translation)
(1) 100 Match (translation memory is used) Characters in the translated text cell are displayed in blue and the translated text of the
translation memory is displayed. Since this is a 100% match, the translator should not need to change the translation.
(2) Fuzzy Match [<100 match] (translation memory used) Characters in the translated text cell are displayed in orange and text lifted from
translation memory is displayed in brackets. Also, the match value is indicated in % as well. Because this is a fuzzy match, the translated text partially differs from the translation of the original text. The translator needs to check which part is different and correct the translated text accordingly. (3) No translation memory items that can be used (Automatic Translation) Characters in the translated text cell are displayed in black and the result of automatic ATLAS translation is di spla yed . The translator needs to check the translated text and correct as needed. If you store the results of corrections performed in items (2) and (3) in the translation memory, they can be used when translating similar sentences the next time. When processing manuals and technical documents in which similar or identical expressions and sentences are used frequently, translation efficiency increases if you store and accumulate corrected items in the translation memory on an ongoing basis. For details, refer to "Chapter 10 Using the Translation Memory" in "Basics", on page
174.

Introduction

If there are only a few sentences that match the items stored in translation memory (in which case, text is displayed in blue/orange color), you can try setting a lower match value. In addition, creating separate translation environment names (files) for each match value makes it easy to switch between various translation environments.
Y ou can also configure the translation environment to not display the fuzzy match brackets and the % display that indicates the degree to which a source text string matches items already stored in translation memory. In addition, you can specify that 100% matches or automatic translation are placed in brackets, and also change the type of bracket used. For additional details on this and related topics, refer to Help.
Translation memory data that matches part of a source text string may be utilized in the translation without displaying [100% Match] or [Fuzzy Match]. The rest of the string is automatically translated. The [Translated Text] cell characters are shown in black.
Items stored in [Add Example-Based Translation Data] in older versions can be used as is as translation memory data. For the treatment of the example-based translation data which includes patterns, refer to "Storing proper nouns and date & time as variables [Store Translation Memory with Variables]" in "Basics", on page 197.
Translation memory items are stored in the User Dictionary. When two or more user dictionaries are used, translation memory items are stored in a user dictionary which is set as the top priority user dictionary (changeable dictionary) in the translation environment. The translation memory data is applied to all user dictionaries used by translation. For details about user dictionary, refer to "Chapter 8 Using the Dictionary" in "Basics", on page
122.
If you do not want to use the translation memory setting the next time, set the Environment Name drop down menu setting in the Translator Editor to [General].
If you do not need the "Memory70%" translation environment name file created during this exercise, you can delete it.
• Example: Stored translation memory data:
[Source String]志願者は本人自身で申 し 込む こ とにな っ て い ま す。 [Translated Text] Applicants are requested to apply in person.

Basic ATLAS Functions

This section describes the flow of translation work using translation memory, which allows you to use ATLAS more effectively.

1.1 Flow of Automatic Translation

Translation by ATLAS can be divided into the following four basic steps.
1
Preparing the source text
ATLAS translates electronic sentence data from the source language into the target language.
Basics
Create the source text by entering data in your PC.
2
Pre-editing
Before starting translation, review and pre-edit the source text. This step involves writing original text that is optimized for translation. Pre-editing is an effective way to boost translation quality. Pre-editing includes:
Defining the separation between sentences
Re-writing complicated sentences into plain sentences
Dividing long sentences into shorter sentences
Correcting typos and syntax errors
3
Translation
ATLAS translates the source text into the target language. ATLAS has the following functions.
Translation of English text into Japanese text and vice versa.
Translation Editor, Clipboard Translation, Web Translation functions, and Application
Translation.
Use of the technical and User Dictionaries.
Changing the translation environment style and the translation method.
4
Post-editing
Review and post-edit the translated text. This step involves checking and completing the translation. Post-editing is an effective way to boost translation quality. Post-editing includes:
Checking the translated text for legibility
Checking the translated text for syntax errors
Read printed text using a scanner and convert it into character data using OCR software.
Prepare already existing text.
40
Chapter 1 Basic ATLAS Functions
ATLAS Translation Examples
The following gives typical application examples where ATLAS can be used for text translation. Read this section as a reference when you use ATLAS.
Japanese-to-English rough translation
Use the Translation Editor to get a rough idea of the content of Japanese magazine articles, etc.
Japanese magazine
You can get a rough idea of the content by reading the translated text. If a sentence is unclear, you can check its Japanese text shown at the left.
English-to-Japanese presentation document translation
You can quickly translate and create a Japanese presentation document when you need to make a presentation to Japanese customers. Use PowerPoint Translation to translate an English presentation document into Japanese without changing its layout and format.
Read the text using a scanner, and convert it into text data using OCR software.
Translate the Japanese text into English using the Translation Editor, and output or print out both texts in parallel layout.
Basics Try Using ATLAS
2
[ATLAS] tab
As the English and Japanese text have different numbers of characters, the translated text may have an incorrect layout. If this occurs, change the font size or layout using PowerPoint.

1.2 Flow of Translation Using Translation
Memory
When translating or creating manuals and technica l documents, usin g ATLAS translation memory increases translation work efficiency and helps maintain consistent translation quality. For an overview of translation memory, refer to "Utilizing Translation Memory [Translation Memory] " in "Introduction."
1
Storing Translation Memory
"Original" and "Translation" stored as pairs of translation examples are stored in ATLAS User Dictionaries as translation memory data. Translation memory data can be stored using [Translation Editor] or Excel. Also, you can add multiple translation memory data items at one time by preparing a text file (.tra / .txt) you want to register beforehand.
Original Translation
OK]ボタンをクリックします。 Click the OK button.
2
Specifying the method for displaying matching ratio (match value) and translation
Set the following two items in the ATLAS translation environment settings.
Match value
Specifies to what degree the sentences to be translated and the translation memory items should match. Translation memory that matches the setting or better is output as the translation result.
Display method
The method for displaying the result of translated text can be changed to differentiate between text that is translated using the translation memory and text translated by automatic translation.
3
Translation using translation memory
You can create translation data by consulting data stored in the Translation Memory. Specifically, when you select a original sentence in an original document opened using an ATLAS function such as Translation Editor to activate the Translation Memory, any sentences similar to the original one are retrieved from the translation memory and displayed in the window. The original text and corresponding original and translated text found in the translation memory is displayed. Also, this list is color-coded so that you can intuitively recognize which words or character strings match those in the translation memory. When you find the right translation from the list, you can then select and apply it to your translation. On the Translation Memory (Another window), if you cannot find an appropriate translation in the list, you can use the result of machine translation displayed in the lower section of the [Translation Memory] window.
42
Chapter 1 Basic ATLAS Functions

Post-editing
The translation using translation memory specified as "100% match" does not require any changes. Even for translation with less than 100%, only a partial change completes the translation.

button.
ATLAS Translation Example: Translation of a revised manual
Translation memory is very suitable for revised manual translation. Since manuals frequently use similar expressions compared to other types of documents, the hit ratio (Match Value) of the translation memory is high and the ratio at which translation memory is used throughout a document is very high. For that reason, when the old version of translated contents is stored in translation memory and is used for the revised manual, sentences that are not changed do not need to be translated again. Furthermore, translation memory is used at a high ratio for not only the sentences that are partially changed from the old version but also newly added sentences so that, in many cases, translation can be completed by simply changing part of the translation. In addition, manuals that use straightforward expressions are suitable for automatic translation for which translation memory is not used and translation results close to what you expect can be obtained.
Basics Try Using ATLAS
2
For the actual revised manual translation work, first display and edit the existing manual translation result (original and translation) in the Translation Editor and perform batch addition to the translation memory. At this time, it is more effective if you use [Add Word] to store unique terms such as product and function names. Next, use [Word Translation] to use the translation memory for the revised manual. After that, review the translation to occasionally edit/store the translation memory data to accumulate translation memory.

Translation memory quality can be increased through regular extracting and combining of accumulated memory during the translation process. By developing dictionaries in shared folders over a network used by multiple users, translation style can be standardized. For more about common dictionaries see "Chapter 10 Using the Translation Memory" on page 174.
