| Abstract | InterText is a flexible manager and editor for alignment of parallel texts aimed both at individual and collaborative creation of parallel corpora of any size or translational memories. It is available in two versions: as a multi-user server application with a web-based interface and as a native desktop application for personal use. Both versions are able to cooperate with each other. InterText can process plain text or custom XML documents, deploy existing automatic aligners and provide a comfortable interface for manual post-alignment correction of both the alignment and the text contents and segmentation of the documents. One language version may be aligned with several other versions (using stand-off alignment) and the application ensures consistency between them. The server version supports different user levels and privileges and it can also track changes made to the texts for easier supervision. It also allows for batch import, alignment and export and can be connected to other tools and scripts for better integration in a more complex project workflow. |
