Using this dialog, you can send documents to the Asia Online machine translation portal for machine translation.

memoQ will send the documents to Asia Online for machine translation. Depending on the size of documents, Asia Online might take hours or a day to process them. When the result is available, memoQ receives the translation in the form of a bilingual (XLIFF) document. memoQ then updates the document in the online project: memoQ overwrites existing translations in all rows that were translated by Asia Online. Those rows that were not changed by Asia Online are not changed by memoQ either: the existing translation is not deleted.

Important: You need to set up the connection between your memoQ server and Asia Online before you can send documents for translation. To do this, open the Server Administrator dialog, and choose the Asia Online category.

How to begin

Open an online project for management in the memoQ online project dialog. Navigate to the Translations pane. Select the documents you want to translate using Asia Online, then click the Asia Online link below the document list.

Use

You can start a new job on the New job tab of the Asia Online jobs dialog.

In the Scope section, choose whether Asia Online should work on the entire projects (All documents radio button) or the selected documents only (Selected documents radio button). The Selected documents radio button is selected by default.

In the Rows to translate section, you can choose which segments are submitted to be translated by Asia Online.

Edited: Check this check box if you want to translate those rows that were already edited. If Asia Online has translations for those segments, they will be overwritten when the result is received.

Pre-translated: Check this check box if you want to translate those rows that were previously pre-translated. If Asia Online has translations for those segments, they will be overwritten when the result is received.

However, in the Match threshold spin box, you can specify the maximum match rate to submit a segment. Rows that were pre-translated with a higher match rate will not be translated by Asia Online.

Not started or fragment-assembled: Check this check box to translate those segments that had no previous translations, or only fragments.
 

In the Other options section, you can specify Asia Online-specific and versioning options.

Domain combination drop-down list: Choose a domain to use with the documents. This drop-down list contains domains available for your current language pair. Domains are provided by Asia Online.

Project ID drop-down list: The Project ID belongs to the user and is used as a global project ID for every submission. It must be set to submit a job to Asia Online.

Job timeout (hours) spin box: Set the maximum time that Asia Online can take when processing these documents. If the specified number of hours elapse before the translation is received from Asia Online, memoQ server drops the job, and the translation will not be performed at all. In such cases, you need to submit the job again as a new job.

Create a snapshot before check box: Check this check box if you want memoQ server to create a snapshot (a minor version) of the documents before submitting them to Asia Online. Normally, memoQ server does not create a snapshot before the translation. You can add a comment in the text box to the right.

Create a snapshot after check box: Check this check box if you want memoQ server to create a snapshot (a minor version) of the documents after receiving the translations from Asia Online. Normally, memoQ server does not create a snapshot after the translation. You can add a comment in the text box to the right.
 

After you fill in all necessary details in the New job tab, click Submit new job to send the documents to Asia Online. If you click Close without clicking Submit, the job will not be sent.

In the Job overview tab of the Asia Online jobs dialog, you can see a list of jobs that were sent to Asia Online, and that are still running. Completed jobs are not displayed.

Navigation

Click Close to leave the dialog.

Note: Close does not submit the new job to Asia Online. If you have filled in the details of a new job in the New job tab, click Submit new job first.
