CATCount: Trados Translator's Workbench 7 - compatible wordcount tool
-
Version
1.1
CATCount is useful CAT tool. CATCount eases accounting
of Computer Assisted Translation Jobs by translating
complex CAT Scheme into one easy number. Additionally,
it provides great features for printing and export of
used CAT Scheme together with original wordcounts, and
resulting CATCount. Wordcount analysis logs of Trados®
Translator’s Workbench are processed automatically.
The very concept of using single number is not new,
and has been used extensively by many translation
agencies worldwide under various names: leveraged
wordcount, weighted wordcount, equivalent wordcount,
etc. Because while regular distribution of wordcount
information distinct categories by CAT Tools (Trados,
SDLX, Deja Vu, Star Transit) is useful for analysis in
general, it is not very comfortable for accounting.
CATCount takes the solution to the problem to the next
level by providing easy interface, which can be shared
between translation agencies and freelance
translators, and within translator teams.
