Hello, memoQ 8.6!

memoQ 8.6, our third release in 2018, is a more CMS friendly translation management system with improved UX, terminology, filters, performance, and server workflows.

Integrations

Integrations

By improving our integration with content management systems and other third-party technology, we continue to create a more open and reliable translation environment.

API & SDK improvements

You can now query weighted word counts through the Web Services API, so integrators like Plunet and XTRF can have access to those.

Machine Translation

We are adding two new machine translation (MT) plugins, especially important for those who work with Japanese or Chinese. TMXmall is a Chinese MT “aggregator”. The TMXmall MT Plugin provides convenient access to neural machine translation services such as Google, Baidu, and more. Textra MT is a powerful tool primarily created for Japanese patent translation work. It supports Japanese, English, Chinese and Korean languages.

Integration support for Content Management Systems (CMS)

Until now, the Content Management Systems (CMS) Connector only supported WordPress. From now on, its capable of supporting any CMS brands through custom-developed CMS connectors. How does it work? To take advantage of this new functionality, you will need to develop a CMS connector for the memoQ CMS API. Once developed, you can connect your client’s CMS to memoQ as easy as you do with WordPress.

Terminology

Terminology

Proper terminology management is essential to guarantee translation quality.It also affects productivity just as much as translation memory does, and it is equally important.

Missing languages in term bases

When creating a project from a template, you now can decide whether to add the missing project languages to the term bases selected for the project. Up until version 8.6, all missing languages were added automatically to term bases attached to projects via templates. This improvement is another example of how our frequent release policy allows for an incremental evolution of memoQ.

Term extraction improvements

memoQ’s term extraction editor now has a context menu item for adding the selected target-side text on the Occurrences panel directly to the current term candidate as Target term.

Term base improvements

memoQ 8.6 introduces improvements to memoQ term bases: You can now copy term pairs and even full entries from the term base entry details pane to the clipboard and paste them in other applications like Microsoft Word as plain or formatted text. memoQ now supports right-to-left (RTL) languages (like Arabic and Hebrew) when editing terms and when these terms are listed in term term base. This functionality is also available in QTerm.

Productivity

Productivity

The items listed below are productivity boosters for translation work and user experience enhancements.

Quality Assurance Improvements

memoQ 8.6 enhances the way you can work with quality assurance (QA). In this version, you will experience the following benefits: Separate control for non-translatables under QA settings. Display suggested translation of auto-translatables on the Resolve Errors and Warnings screen and in the QA report.

Responsive Task Tracker

Improvements to the QA report to provide more relevant and accurate information about the QA process: List the term bases used for QA at the time the QA report was created. List the number and names of documents checked during QA. List target language(s) in the QA report. “Invert selection” options in the Filter section of the QA report. Adjust your task tracker any way you like! Version 8.6 allows resizing the Task Tracker window so now you can adjust the window according to your needs. memoQ will now remember the settings for the next time you open the Task Tracker.

memoQ server backup

memoQ server now also backs up and restores translation files belonging to CMS jobs.

Document Import and Export

Document Import and Export

Getting documents into and out of memoQ might not sound like the most exciting topic, but these capabilities are essential and can make or break a translation tool.

Visio files

With Visio 2013, Microsoft introduced a new format, VSDX. We implemented support for VSDX as a new file format filter. memoQ’s composite filters now also handle Visio files, so a Visio chart embedded in a DOCX can be imported just as an embedded Excel sheet.

User Experience

User Experience

Improving software performance is one way to make memoQ more user-friendly.The math is simple: the more powerful and faster the software becomes, the better for you.

Usage Data Collection

We launched the Usage Data Collection program earlier this year, with memoQ 8.4, but until now, only memoQ clients could share data. With memoQ 8.6, memoQ server and the deployment tool are now included in the program. This way, we can start gathering metrics on usage data from server environments.

What are we going to measure first?

At first, we aim to gather data regarding memoQ server backups. We want to understand how much storage space and how many files each server uses for different data types like translation projects, translation memories and term bases.

This will allow us to get insights on the required backup time and total backup size, and make fact-based improvements that can lead to faster backups.
