hello everybody I am looking for a CAT tool compatible with a Mac (like Memo Q) also I am looking for an edition tool like ABBYY (edition tool) I use voice recognition software because it helps productivity I use a Mac for stability but I need to have a full workstation before I do anything else please help me kick off Guy Sommeria | | |
In the same situation, all I've been told is to use boot camp or parallels and install windows for Trados. | | |
I use CafeTran on my Mac. Alternatives include: OmegaT, Swordfish, Heartsome, and WordFast. No need for Windows. Cheers, Hans | | | Antonio F. L (X) Spain Local time: 13:50 English to Spanish + ...
Besides using Windows CAT tools via Parallels or similar, OmegaT is a cross-platform CAT tool, working very well also on Mac, and IMHO growing as an excellent open-source CAT tool. You may want to give it a try - www.omegat.com | |

So it's just a question of picking up the one you like best. guy sommeria wrote: also I am looking for an edition tool like ABBYY (edition tool) ABBYY is a (software)company, not a tool. I have no idea what an "edition tool" is, but maybe you mean an OCR (optical character recognition) software. If so, ABBYY has such a product, FineReader. There's even a Mac version of it. guy sommeria wrote: I use voice recognition software because it helps productivity If the voice recognition software you currently use is Mac-based, it most likely won't work in a Windows virtual machine. If you chose a Windows CAT tool, you would have to switch to another voice recognition software (most Windows users who are into VR seem to use Dragon Naturally Speaking). If you chose a CAT tool that runs natively in OS X, you would want to check your VR software works in it (which can't be taken for granted). | | |

He means an "editing tool". "edition" (édition) is a Fr-En "false friend". Guy is not alone - I have known Yves Champollion (originator of WordFast) to make the same mistake. The activity of reading and modifying text is, in English, "editing"; "edition" is an object (e.g. an edition of a book or newspaper), not a process. Oliver | |

Now OS X Yosemite's Dictation works well with Trados Studio 2014. I have not tested other CATs yet. But in Studio, you can use Dictation and type on your keyboard at the same time. | | | Which virtualization software? | Oct 23, 2014 |

Do you need to use a particular mode of the virtualization software (eg. Coherence in Parallels, or Unity in Fusion), or does it work even if the virtual machine window is maximized in OS X? | | | To report site rules violations or get help, contact a site moderator: You can also contact site staff by submitting a support request » looking for a CAT tool compatible with Mac Trados Studio 2022 Freelance | The leading translation software used by over 270,000 translators.
