Termbases
Termbases ensure consistency across the terminology in your project. Create, manage, and reuse multilingual terminology from a single storage area and reduce the time and effort required to translate new documents.
-
MadCap Align Utility
Translators can create an alignment project and manually align files and segments as needed. MadCap Align provides two benefits:
- A more intuitive workflow with a clear separation between the translation and alignment processes.
- Greater flexibility, since translators can continue to work within MadCap Align even when the MadCap Lingo software is closed.
-
PowerPoint Support
Import PowerPoint files directly into MadCap Lingo.
-
Update Project Replaces Difference Project
MadCap Lingo no longer creates a new project when simple changes or updates are made to the source; instead, it simply updates the current project only with the changes. These changed files are then flagged in MadCap Lingo for resending to translation.
