CATCount in TO3000 3D+ |
Introduction CATCount is a tool for calculating Computer Assisted Translation (CAT) cost. In TO3000 3D+, CATCount is used for accounting of computer assisted translation jobs. It's primary functions are: ·translating complex CAT Schemes (different rates and counts of different types of text) into a single text count number, i.e. the CATCount. ·importing CAT counts from Trados Translator’s Workbench and Logoport logs. ·printing of CAT Schemes together with the original word counts. CATCount options can be found in the following TO3000 3D+ windows: New/Edit Draft Client Job, New Client Job (Edit Client Job) and New Quote (Edit Quote).
Interface In TO3000 3D+, CATCount is used in the following way. When you open a New Job window
you specify the job name, group and service at first. When you create a job or a quote and click the <=CATCount button, you open the CATCount window. With the help of this window you can enter word counts for different match types, and their respective rates. CATCount automatically calculates the equivalent CAT count and enters the resulting number into the Volume field.
Creating CAT counts 1. Click the <=CATCount button in the New/Edit Draft Client Job , New Client Job (Edit Client Job) or New Quote (Edit Quote) window to open the CATCount window. 2. Enter the number of words with different match levels (100% match, "fuzzy" match and so on), and the percentages of full rate payment, i.e. the CAT Scheme. Once you have entered the values you can save the scheme by clicking Scheme > Save. You can load it next time by clicking Scheme > Load. NOTE: You can load word count analysis logs from Trados Translator’s Workbench or Logoport using the menu Log > Load. 3. Click OK to enter the Total CATCount number into the Volume field. An expanded count report is added on the CATCount Notes tab which appears after CATCount is used.
