When launching a word count, Wordbee will calculate the number of characters, words, segments and repetitions present in the document(s) to translate. If you have attached a translation memory to the project, Wordbee will also pre-translate the document(s) from it.
You need to create a word count profile to: (for example)
- Determine the percentage of match under which Wordbee should not pre-translate
- Define the match intervals you want to display in the word count
- Decide to translate by machine text not already pre-translated by the translation memory.
