I bought the Heartsome Translation Suite half a year ago and am able to work easy jobs with it but I can't really find my way in. Who works with Heartsome and can tell me about their experiences?

Is there any Heartsome training available in Germany? I would greatly appreciate help because I think it's not that Heartsome is wrong, I just can't figure out many things and have trouble just learning from their help section.

Thanks in advance,
Martina

Not that I know of Oct 14, 2006

Hello Martina,

as far as I know, there is no such thing as a training or even a tutorial for the Heartsome Suite or any of its editors.

I used to work with the XLIFF Editor a lot, and also have some experience with the TMX Editor. I'll be glad to answer your questions if I can.

Have you thought about joining the mailing list? It is the best place to ask questions.

Sonja

You can also visit Heartsome's wiki at http://www.heartsome.org/hswiki and check the tips and tricks section. There is a section where users write their wishes for the programs and most of them get implemented.

Finally, you can ask questions here. I may be able to help you with all aspects of Heartsome's tools.

How do I do that? Oct 14, 2006

Hi Sonja, thanks for your answer!

Sorry, the question might be stupid, but where and how can I join the mailing list? I couldn't find it. I only started using proz.com and I get lost all the time…
Have you changed your CAT tool and why?

Martina

Add your questions to this thread Oct 14, 2006

Since Rodolfo already replied to your question about the mailing list, I can only add that you can also ask any questions you might have in this thread.

I used to work a lot with Wordfast and was looking for an alternative CAT that runs on Linux too, so I bought Heartsome. (In fact, WF does work with Linux if you have Word installed, but I was looking for a "standalone" option.)
At the moment I prefer to work with OmegaT when I am not able to run Wordfast.

Sonja
