Analysis Expert

The Analysis Expert analyses one or more documents by comparing them to a translation memory to calculate the number of segment matches between the document(s) and the memory.

A word count report can also be created using this Expert.

This report can then be used by the project manager and/or translator to create a time line and costing for the project.

You can use Alchemy PUBLISHER to analyze Word documents, HTML, SGML, XML, FrameMaker, text files, software applications and XLIFF documents.
