Hi,

I setup google translate key, so I can get machine translate paragraph by paragraph. But I want to get machine translate by whole document once. Can it be done?

Any information would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

I know of no way to do that, no.

But if you have Windows, you can use an AutoIt script to translate an entire text file, outside of OmegaT.

Outside OmegaT, direct at Google Translate

from Canada:

(from Czechia: google.cz)

Document

Upload a file .doc, .docx, .odf, .pdf, .ppt, .pptx, .ps, .rtf, .txt, .xls or .xlsx

The European SMEs can use eTranslation for EU languages only, but for bigger files. Output files can be TMX or XLIF.

While it could do the trick, I could do something similar via free QTranslate.

However, for a sensible paper I would rather garble the document or use an off-line MT.
