MT

Inverted Color Scheme in memoQ Desktop Client (11.2)

In response to user requests for improved visual comfort, the Inverted Color Scheme was thoughtfully designed to assist users with visual impairments and to support translators working long hours, reducing eye fatigue. The Inverted Color Scheme in memoQ builds upon the Inverted Colors option of Windows Magnifier, elevating the visual experience while prioritizing accessibility. Magnifier’s high contrast has been toned down to ease eye strain. memoQ users can now choose between two color schemes—Default and Inverted—under Options/Appearance, allowing color customization in each scheme. By default, the original colors for hit types in Translation Results (such as TM, TB and LiveDocs) are retained in the Inverted Color Scheme, but users can also modify these as needed. The Inverted Color Scheme applies only to the memoQ main window. For the best experience, use memoQ in full-screen mode and ensure that all memoQ windows are on the same screen to maintain consistent color inversion.

Enhanced Accuracy with TAUS Generic Model v2 (11.2)

The TAUS Generic Model v2 offers significantly improved accuracy for quality estimation, ensuring better translation outcomes.

TM+ as the Default for New TMs in memoQweb (11.2)

And do so through the very AEM workspace you use for day-to-day asset management activities while keeping the same user experience, thanks to memoQ’s AEM-native plugin.

Regex Assistant: harness the power of regex-based string searching (9.8)

Regexes, short for regular expressions, are a powerful means of finding and replacing character sequences in text and come in handy whenever memoQ users need to search for strings that match a certain description (for example, dates in MM/DD/YYYY format) rather than a specific word. Regexes can be accessed in Find and replace and the translation editor’s filtering controls and can be used to define segmentation, auto-translation, or Regex Tagger rules.

New licensing flow (9.9)

If you use a memoQ server and hand out mobile licenses to freelancers, they can easily get to work within a few minutes of downloading memoQ. When they get to the activation wizard, the option “I will get a license from a server” option will pop up for them. All they have to do is choose that option, enter the server details, and start working straight away—no need to wait for the 30-day trial to end!

Changes to WS API (9.9)

We added a new function to WS API. Until now, WS API package imports have not imported any light resources, so we created a new function that supports this use case as well, so that all light resources are also automatically imported.

New import options for MS Office Suite files (9.9)

From 9.9 onwards, memoQ imports the alt texts from images in your MS Office documents. This is especially important from a website accessibility point of view. More and more laws are made (most recently in Canada) to ensure that all services and websites are made available for persons living with disabilities.

Enhanced SSO & Multi-factor authentication (9.9)

Great news for server administrators: OpenID Connect-based SSO just got more secure! When you have a new user signing on to memoQ with SSO, you automatically get a notification, and you can change their status immediately. The user management dashboard also got a makeover, making it easier to keep track of your server users.

PPTX modern comments are now imported as translatable strings

Simplified import of exported LiveDocs corpora (9.10)

So far, when you exported LiveDocs corpora from memoQ as a .zip file, you could not reimport the .zip file into memoQ without unpacking it first. From 9.10 on, you can import the whole content of the exported .zip file, or select the specific corpus documents you want to include in your import.

Term base-related improvements (9.10)

Inside a TB entry, you find source terms and target terms. Sometimes one source term has multiple target terms or vice versa. In that case, the terms are saved in the order in which you added them. We are now adding the opportunity to modify the order in which these terms are stored. To do so, just click on the term you want to sort, and use the arrows on the right to put it in the position you want.

Machine Translation tweaks (9.10)

Great news for those who use machine translation in their projects! We added two new functions (a formality setting and the use of glossaries) to our DeepL plugin, and we also created a plugin for memoQ to use with the European Union’s eTranslation MT engine.

Business Analytics (9.10)

Now you can get more information about your translation projects with our new business analytics feature. Easily create reports and download them with a single click. The resulting .csv file contains detailed information about your memoQ projects (such as source, client, translator, filters, deadlines, and more). Once you have the .csv, you can apply your own analytics tool to get the insights you need.

Qterm

SYSTRAN plugin update: assign profiles to language pairs (9.12)

In earlier memoQ versions, you only had the opportunity to choose a single profile from a dropdown menu, often not knowing the language pair associated with your profile. You had to know exactly which profile you were looking for to set it up.

Updates to our Google Cloud Translation Advanced MT plugin (9.12)

In memoQ 9.12, we’ve made the process easier, so even those of you who don’t have an advanced technical background can access your glossaries directly from the plugin by opening the Create Glossary resource dialogue, configuring your settings, and entering your glossary data.

New MT plugins on board: NiuTrans and Globalese (9.12)

NiuTrans is a cloud-based machine translation engine. Established in 2012, NiuTrans is used in 300+ language pairs (centered mostly around Chinese). It has recently been supported as a private plugin, but now it has become public. Globalese is not your traditional machine translation plugin. It is not an MT engine, but a platform for building engines. So far, it has only been supported by memoQ as a private plugin, but from memoQ 9.12 on, it is also available as a public plugin (i.e., as part of the installation of memoQ).

New term defaults for QTerm term bases (9.12)

In the memoQ desktop client, you can choose the default settings for prefix matching and case sensitivity for all new entries in a term base from the New term defaults window. Going forward, you can do the same in QTerm, and users with sufficient permissions can change the term base’s properties (i.e., admin rights for the specific TB can set defaults for new terms).

Exclude segment from auto-propagation (9.12)

In memoQ 9.12, you can choose one or more instances of a specific translation to be excluded from auto-propagation. Once you set an exception, a small label will appear indicating that the segment is excluded from auto-propagation.

Concordance from the translation editor: automatically detect source/target (9.12)

When you open and run concordance from the translation grid, memoQ now automatically detects whether the specific segment appears in the source or the target text. Moreover, the Search in Target tickbox has been replaced by the Source and Target radio buttons, which also switch automatically when you open concordance from the grid, thereby clearly communicating exactly where concordance is performed.

Display numbers inside short inline tags (9.12)

memoQ already had a short inline tag option, and for 9.12, we tweaked it so that the inline tags would also feature numbers. This allows the user to still see the whole text without the long inline tags disturbing the view, and also allows to see at a glance which opening and closing tags belong together in the text.

Ignore non-translatables during spellcheck and QA (9.12)

When you set non-translatables (such as acronyms or brand names) for your translation project, they can still be identified as errors during spellcheck, and you need to skip each one as you perform the quality assurance process. In memoQ 9.12, we are introducing a new feature that lets you ignore non-translatables during spellcheck, thus reducing your translation time. You can find the setting in the QA settings window or the spell-checking dialog.

Enhancing font substitution: handle change between scripts (10.2)

memoQ’s font substitution settings enable the use of a different font in the translated document—from memoQ 10.2 on, font substitution can also handle changes from one script to another (e.g., from Latin characters to Japanese ones).

Do not exclude “oversized” segments (10.2)

If a segment in another tool’s XLIFF happens to be over the limit that memoQ can handle (4 000 characters), it is no longer omitted during import, but split into smaller chunks and imported with the rest of the segments.

Locking/unlocking possible in online projects (10.2)

Now you can lock/unlock segments in online projects in addition to local ones

Support TM+ in package workflow (10.2)

When working with Packages in memoQ TMS, TM+s are no longer converted into classic TMs when exporting, but they keep their TM+ status and can be reimported as such.

Exporting embedded files in automated workflows (10.2)

Embedded files, such as an Excel file embedded into a PPTX or ZIP files, appear as separate documents in memoQ

Add TMs for reverse look-up directly in templates (10.2)

Project templates in memoQ allow the addition of reverse language translation memories

Business Analytics 2.0 (10.2)

Visualize your translation projects, and make data-driven localization decisions with memoQ’s highly customizable reports

Remove light resources in batch (10.2)

Light resources (such as filter configurations), which can be abundant if you work with multiple clients and projects, can now be deleted in bulk.

Placeholder {deadline} added to SubVendorGroupDistribution (10.2)

As a project manager, you can now add the placeholder {deadline} in the Project distributed with subvendor group assignments email template so that you can notify subvendors about the deadline.

Moderated term bases available in Qterm (10.2)

Moderation (a function previously available in memoQ term bases only) is now also possible in Qterm

TM+ (10.0)

We are introducing TM+, a significantly more stable and faster translation memory

Feed DeepL in HTML format (10.0)

You now have the option to choose between the existing XML and the new HTML formats

SYSTRAN Neural Fuzzy Adaptation (10.0)

SYSTRAN can provide more accurate translation output on the fly by enabling memoQ to provide fuzzy matches, the best hit with each translation request, from the TMs into its engine

New import filter for Phrase’s (formerly Memsource) XLIFF format (10.0)

Enterprises and LSPs sometimes use Phrase as their primary TMS, so freelancers are prone to encounter with its file format more frequently. By using the new Phrase XLIFF import filter, you can easily work in memoQ on projects where Phrase is your client’s TMS of choice.

Create edit distance reports for each file in a project (10.0)

Edit distance is a widely used measurement of the translator’s work, especially with machine translation post-editing becoming a more and more widely used method of translation. This feature allows project managers to estimate and quantify the translator’s work ahead.

Content Connector Consolidation & Carve-out (10.0)

Content Connector is now a separate product

Improvements related to Qterm’s user experience (10.0)

Several Qterm improvements, requested by our users.

Licensing Management on memoQweb (11.3)

Manage CAL licenses directly through the memoQweb Interface, making it easier to handle license allocation and administration online.
