Create analysis report

In a memoQ project: Counts words, characters, and segments in the source text of the whole project. Looks up every segment in the translation memories and LiveDocs corpora, and counts the different types of matches. Creates an analysis report, and makes it available in the Overview pane of the project.

Use this report when you prepare a project. Run the analysis again if the source documents change: new documents are added, existing ones are changed or deleted.

Note: In many cases, memoQ runs the analysis automatically.

What can you do?

Don't use Trados 2007-like word counts: Normally, memoQ counts words like Microsoft Word does. In the past, when Trados 2007 or earlier (Trados Translator's Workbench) used to be a dominant translation tool, it was important that memoQ could produce similar word counts - so that translation companies could compare them. This is no longer the case. Use the Trados 2007-like word counts only if your client still works with an early Trados version, and they insist on using it.

When you finish
