Transolution

Transolution is an excellent Computer Aided Translation (CAT) suite that supports the widely used XLIFF standard. This suite has been devised keeping in mind the open-source community and provides robust features and concepts to improve the efficiency and quality of translation. Being modular, it offers flexibility and has a range of tools, including the XLIFF editor, translation memory engine, and filters that enable conversion to and from XLIFF.

Since Transolution uses XLIFF, it makes localization of almost any content feasible, as there is a filter to support multiple formats like XML, SGML, PO, RTF, StarOffice/OpenOffice. Moreover, the software incorporates an interactive Translation Memory, which simplifies the translation process and enhances its quality.

One of the most prominent features of Transolution is its translation editor that provides professional-quality services for both software and documentation. It comes equipped with tag protection and has sentence segmentation. Thus, it helps to make the process of software localization much simpler and more effective.

The suite is incredibly versatile and comes with a wide range of features, including the ability to work across different platforms. Transolution is entirely open-source and is licensed under the GPL License.

Transolution requires Python>2.3, Pygtk 2.4 (with py-glade) and 4suite XML >1.0a4 to function optimally. The latest release of Transolution has resolved some critical bugs that were related to TM server and XLIFF Editor TM look up. Additionally, it has added a new xliff2tmx filter.

Overall, Transolution is an outstanding CAT suite that provides access to features that have traditionally only been available to users of commercial offerings. Its user-friendliness, coupled with its open-source nature, makes it an ideal choice for anyone looking for a professional-quality CAT tool.
