According to private correspondence with the developer, the next version of appTranslator will have native import and export support for XLIFF. Right on! [/quote]That is kind of you. I was given version 1.2 client side, it doesn´t do many things. Apparently the project is still in testing phase, I haven´t heard from the outsourcer since over a week. Best Brandis

AppTranslator tool | A fine program... for amateurs

AppTranslator is a fine program for amateur translators, but not for professionals. You can't import and export TMs, nor can you export to any format which can be translated in a TM program. You can only export to AppT's own format, which can only be read by AppT (and it's a binary format, so you can't simply open it in Notepad).

Truly, I fail to see how AppTranslator is any better than the freeware program Resource Hacker, at [url removed] At least with ResHack you can export all resource files to plaintext RC files (although you have to compile them before importing them back into ResHack).

I'm not sure how to compile VC++, though.

Hi Brandis,

I have received this SW too for a test, and I managed the interface test without any big problem.

In any case you can find further information through the SW menu:

Help > About appTranslator...

This will open the "About appTranslator" window where you can find the link:

to access their institutional Web site, where you can find further information.

I already have huge TMs which I cannot use with this tool and the Tm in the tool doesn´t given an option to export to a .tmx format. Generally said one is less free while working with this tool or do you know a way that may be a possibility enhancing this tool or work-around. Best Brandis

Hi! I am asked to work with the above mentioned tool localizing application interfaces. The TMs are integrated,it seems and I cannot integrate my TM and or export from the tool . The help file system doesn´t cover this topic. If you have worked with tool, I shall appreciate all help. The tool was sent to me and I have no download link to mention. Best Brandis
