ABBYY Aligner is a professional tool for aligning
parallel texts in various languages and creating
Translation Memory (TM) databases. Based on ABBYY's
foremost linguistic technologies and special
dictionary databases, the program accurately finds
matching segments in the source and translated texts
by checking their semantic proximity and allows saving
the results in the TM database for further use in
Computer Assisted Translation (CAT) tools. It helps to
reduce costs yet increase the quality of translation
services. This makes ABBYY Aligner a reliable and
indispensable assistant for translators, language
service providers, corporate users and specialists
involved in translation management.
ABBYY Aligner delivers a range of useful and powerful
features to ensure quick and efficient work with
parallel texts including easy-to-use editing tools and
the batch processing mode for large amounts of
documents (up to 10 MB each). ABBYY Aligner contains a
fully embedded database of rules for splitting text
into sentences that can be extended with the user's
own list of abbreviations. After alignment, the
program highlights possible errors — such as text
segments with low match probability and rows with
empty cells and spelling mistakes — enabling quick
checking of the results. Its editing capabilities also
include splitting, merging and moving text segments,
as well as manual segment matching.
The application processes texts in 10 popular European
languages (English, German, French, Italian, Polish,
Portuguese, Russian, Spanish, Turkish, and Ukrainian)
with support for 90 translation directions. The
resulting texts can be saved either in RTF or TMX
format which is an international standard supported by
virtually any CAT tools. ABBYY Aligner opens files in
TXT, RTF, PDF, HTML and documents created in popular
Microsoft® Office applications (DOC, DOCX, PPT, PPTX,
PPS, PPSX, XLS and XLSX). It also supports pasting
text from the Clipboard.
