We also place as many as we can in the “News” section of the magazine. Our readers consistently rate this as one of their most read sections, and we rely on you to provide us with ongoing material.

There is no charge for this exposure. Just, submit your press releases online at www.multilingual.com/multilingualNewsSubmit or e-mail to news@multilingual .com or fax your material to the attention of the News Editor.

Product Reviews

We publish language product reviews and are constantly in need of products to review. We only review currently released products and use our independent reviewers for this process. If you would like your language product reviewed, please contact editor@multilingual.com for consideration. Your only cost is that of the review products provided and the time answering questions for the reviewer.

Articles and Editorial

Good articles are always being sought. If you or someone at your company have an idea for an article or an interest in writing one yourself, please contact us at editor@multilingual.com. To maintain our high level of editorial integrity, we discourage self promotion and an obvious bias towards one’s own products and services. Yet, this is a great opportunity to demonstrate how your product can be used, to showcase your level of technical competency and to provide examples of case studies and other information that will help our readers understand the technology and how to use it.

Writer’s guidelines are available at www.multilingual.com/editorialWriter. The calendar — page 2 in this media kit — contains topics for which we will be seeking editorial in future issues.

A ing mode to localize HTML files (center window). You are able to translate directly within a visual editor providing real-time WYSIWYG while you type. The Translator Toolbar below intel-ligently handles HTML formatting tags to secure the integrity of the HTML file. At the very bottom of the GUI, a translation memory (TM)/terminology window suggests full and fuzzy matches within the associated TMs and glossaries.

Again, the option is available to edit tagged hypertext in a WYSIWYG mode, a string mode which displays only source and target text strings and a split mode combining both. The user can define a Web Server to view dynamic web pages in CATALYST.

This is useful in localizing server-based scripts embedded in HTML documents such as JSP, ASP and PHP. Finally, the Menu Editor is used to localize menus and test the finished menu for various localization errors. For Microsoft Desktop applications, the Menu Editor recognizes the relationship between long and short prompt strings. These are displayed alongside each other to provide a higher degree of context. Again, three working modes are available.

The Translator Toolbar is designed to centralize all the functions that a translator needs to work efficiently and quickly. It shows source and

target language strings, displays all glossary matches (though no fuzzy matches) and the properties of each item selected, such as its coordinates, width and height. Shortcut buttons at the top of the toolbar provide access to other translation units (TUs), undo and redo, font size modifications as well as flags to assign the translation status of the unit. Suggested translations are continu-ously displayed in the glossary window. An icon adjacent to each suggested translation indicates where a suggestion originates. The toolbar will display translation suggestions from other TTK, TRADOS Workbenches and Servers and TMX.

Finally, the Project Result Bar is used to display the results of operations performed on the active TTK project file such as search results (find and replace), display of to-do lists, file comparisons and bookmarked items. It also records all general TTK file operations such as the insertion of files or exports of

Alchemy CATALYST consists of several editors, tools and experts as well as optional plug-ins or compo-nents. The Alchemy CATALYST Project Editor is the main interface that translators, engineers and project managers use to localize, test and engineer software applications and digital content files. It is made up of five windows.The Project Navigator displays the content of CATALYST project

files (TTKs: Translation Tool Kits) in an organized, hierarchical list.The Project WorkSpace displays Visual Editors for each item

selected from the Project Navigator. Every editor can be used in four modes, each opti-mizing certain tasks: strings only, visual (WYSIWYG), split-horizontal and split-vertical (both combining string and visual views). The Visual Dia-log Editor is used to localize dialog panels, place and arrange controls, and validate the user’s translated products. It supports Microsoft Win16/Win32s and Win64x dialog boxes and platforms, Microsoft .NET 1.x and .NET 2.0 win-forms and platforms, Visual Basic .NET (all versions), Visual Basic 6.0 and Visual XLIFF 1.0. The visual mode is optimized for testing or arranging of the layout of dialog panels. A dialog toolbar assists in the localiza-tion and layout of any dialog object within a TTK project file. The new Visual HTML Editor helps the user to localize HTML docu-ments and all derivative formats such as ASP, PHP, ASP+ and JSP. HTML is used predominantly on the internet and Microsoft .NET-based software applications.
