User Guide - Microsoft Word

Translate selected text

Go to an email and select some text. Then press the Translate button and choose Translate Selection:

A dialog box opens to let you choose the language of the text and the language into which it should be translated:

The dialog box proposes an option to either have the translation pasted directly into the current Word document or opened in a separate Microsoft Word window.

In this example, we chose to add the translation to the current document:

Translate complete documents

You can use the Add-in to translate the entire document:

A dialog box 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 will pop-up on your screen (in the bottom right corner) when the translation has been downloaded to your PC.

View completed translations

You can view completed translations with the View translations option in the Translate button menu:

This dialog box also shows any selected texts you have 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 Add-in to "forget" your login, click the About link:

Once you're in About, click Disconnect to remove the saved credentials. The next time you ask for a translation, the login dialog box will open again.

User interface language

From the About dialog box (above) you can also change the language of the tool.
