Description

The Problem

You've completed a translation project with 500 files, you used machine translation for some of your work. Now you want to remove the machine translation marker from the file and anonymize the work before the project is completed and returned to your client.

The Solution

This plugin adds a batch task to your available tasks list called "Trados Batch Anonymizer". This allows you to either run the task on a project or a file at will, or add it to a series of custom batch task so that the process is completed while doing something else such as Finalizing your project for example.

There are two ways of carrying out the anonymization when the Trados Batch Anonymizer batch task is chosen:

Choose from various options what should be anonymized
Anonymize all values

Here you can select specific values (or leave blank). The enabled values will appear in the file as the relevant author.

In the example below, in xliff:

"Created by" value for segments will be replaced with 'Steve'
For all comment types (File, Segment and section) the author will be 'Peter'

After selecting the values- click Finish- Close

Reopen the file

After running the task -

The Translation origin/Revision and TM details have been anonymized.

To Anonymize ALL values - Save the file

Return to the Batch Anonymize settings and select -

After running Anonymize all values (and reopening the file) - all values are removed.

Resource origins options

Using these options you can select if the MT and TM markers should be anonymized completely or should be anonymized with Translation Memory Match.

NOTE: You can set the score you'd like the segment to receive and also add the name of a TM to be used in the SDLXLIFF.

Once applied the segment will appear as an edited fuzzy match based on your settings:
