Once the addin is installed, your Microsoft Word shows a new Translate option in the Home ribbon. If, after installation, you cannot see this button please close and reopen Word.
First time users - Login
Click the Translate button. If this is the very first time, a login dialog opens:
Enter your Account ID, Login and Password. These are the same credentials you maybe already use to login to Wordbee Translator online.
If you do not yet have a login, please ask your translation provider. "Connect Online" sends you to the online login page for Wordbee Translator.
If you encounter login problems, please read this page.
Translate selected text
Go to an email and select some text. Then press the Translate button and choose Translate Selection:
A dialog opens to let you choose the language of the text and the language into which to translate:
The dialog proposes an option to either have the translation pasted into the Word document or opened in a separate Microsoft Word window.
In our example we chose to paste back the translation:
Translate complete documents
You can ask the addin to translate the entire document:
A dialog asks you for the languages and translation starts. Depending on the size of your document this may take anything from a few seconds to a few minutes.
A notification pops up on your screen (in the bottom right corner) when the translation was downloaded to your PC.
View completed translations
You view completed translations with the View translations option in the Translate button menu:
This dialog also shows any selected texts you had sent for translation.
The two icons on the right open the translated file or the folder containing the file, respectively. The latter is great if you want to copy or move the file.
Disconnect
The add-in remembers your credentials in encrypted form.
If you want the addin to "forget" your login, click the About link:
Now, in the About dialog click Disconnect to remove the saved credentials. The next time you ask for a translation the login dialog will open again.
User interface language
In the About dialog above you can change the language of the tool.
