CAT Tools Jul 29, 2009

I don't use any software of tools listed in the poll. In some cases (depending on the source text) I just use Trados and I find it very very useful.

What about CAT tools, termbases, desktop/internet search engines, etc? Jul 29, 2009

Most of us are translators, not DTP artists.
I chose voice recognition to avoid choosing Other.

Yup Jul 29, 2009

I agree with others, software mentioned in the poll is mainly DTP and doesn't have much to do with the translation.

I can't agree more.
None of my clients has ever approached me with a request for DTP services.

CAT tools are definitely my No. 1!

Hi, I agree with all of you, we are translators and not DPT artists, however, if find these tools quite useful when I must translate Websites!
Especially because they are user friendly and they save me a lot of time and the annoyance of having to edit a lot of HTML codes with the risk of changing something and ruin the whole file.

Cheers!

Of course...we couldn't work at all without it, or something similar!

None of the above Jul 29, 2009

In four years' busy freelancing I have never been asked to use these or any other DTP programme. Am I missing something?

Voice recognition might come in useful when the RSI kicks in!

Saludos,
Simon
