The Word Count profiles are used to configure how words are counted for documents to be translated. Here you are able to create a configuration that defines:
-
Count Algorithm (Wordbee or Microsoft Word)
-
Fuzzy Match Intervals
-
Pre-Translation Settings
-
Repetition Settings
-
Advanced Settings
By defining a word count profile, the system knows the fuzzy match intervals for applying discounts defined in your pricelist. For example, if the document has pre-translated text, then a specified discount will be automatically applied such as 100%. Then based on the defined intervals for both discounts and fuzzy matches, another discount can be applied for anything that falls betwen 90% and 100%.
The following pages show how to create a word count profile and assign it to projects in Wordbee Translator:
Additionally, the pre-translation settings make it possible to define whether or not machine translation will be allowed for a project. Existing pre-translations may be locked or marked as "do not translate" to ensure the discount is applied and additional work is not performed for these segments or texts.
A few other things you can configure here include:
-
Substition of Dates and Numbers
-
Enable/Disable Repetition Counting
-
Counting of Identical or Similar Repetitions
-
Counting of Translated and Not Translated Repetitions
-
Unique Word Counting Options (Advanced Settings)
