Adding termbases to projects in SDL Studio Trados 2019

Adding termbases to projects in SDL Studio Trados 2019

This is the guide about Adding termbases to projects in SDL Studio Trados 2019, that help you to use SDL Studio Trados 2019 easier.

You can add termbases to existing projects if you need a more extended range of terminology resources.

Procedure

  1. Go to the Projects view and select the project.
  2. Go to the Home tab, and select Project Settings from the Ribbon.
  3. To add termbases, select [source language] – [target language] > Termbases.
  4. On the Termbases page, select Use, and then select a resource:
    • Select SDL Language Cloud Terminology, and on the SDL Language Cloud Terminology Settings page, select the checkboxes corresponding to the termbases of interest. Specify any necessary settings in the Term Search and Term Recognition pane. Select OK.
    • Select File-based MultiTerm Termbase and browse for local, file-based termbases. You can recognize them by the *.sdltb or *.mtb extensions.
    • Select Server-based MultiTerm Termbase, and then select Log in to connect to the MultiTerm Server. Select the check box next to the termbase name that you want add to the project.
  5. Continue selecting termbases until the list is complete. Any termbases you have added appear in the Termbases box and the Enabled option is selected for the termbase. When this option is selected, the termbase is automatically searched during translation when a segment becomes the active segment.
  6. Select if you want to apply any existing filters to the termbase. This filter restricts the results that SDL Trados Studio displays when you search a termbase during translation. For example, you can use a filter when searching a termbase to show only those entries that were created or modified after a certain date.
  7. To set a termbase as the default, select the termbase and click the Set Default button. The termbase is set as the default termbase and is moved to the top of the list of termbases. This termbase determines the languages that are used. New termbase entries added during translation in the Editor view are added to the default termbase.
    Note: The first termbase you add is set as the default termbase, but if you add more than one termbase at a time, no termbase is set as the default. Use the Move Up and Move Down buttons to change the priorities of the termbases.
  8. Make sure the appropriate language for each termbase is set in the Languages pane for each project language. Each language must be mapped to a language in the termbase.
    Note: If there is more than one language that is close match to the project language-for example, if there is a main language and one or more sublanguages such as French (France) , French (Canada) and French (Belgium) -the closest matching language will appear in a drop-down list, where you can change the selection as needed. If there is no matching language available for a project language, the Termbase Language columns will be blank and you will not be able to use active terminology recognition for that language in your project.
  9. Configure other project settings if necessary, and select OK.
