WorldServer Translation Plug-in for Studio
Starting with SDL Trados Studio 2014, the translation memory (TM) attached to a WorldServer package is centrally shared between WorldServer and Studio. When opening a WorldServer package, Studio users with access to the WorldServer system also have real-time access to the server-based TM attached to the package. This means that they always see the most up-to-date version of the TM and can update it in real-time, while confirming the translations in Studio.
The translation plug-in has the following limitations:
- The default WorldServer scoping mode is always used for scoring purposes.
- Not all penalties or penalty values are currently applied or displayed correctly, since WorldServer penalties need to be mapped to penalties understood by Studio, and there is no 1:1 correspondence.
- For a concordance search, WorldServer's scoring rules are applied, which differ from Studio's rules. (WorldServer's Studio-aligned TM mode only applies to standard leverage scoring, not to concordance scoring.)
