Notes on using ExtPhr32 and AntConc as terminology extraction tools
Nov 25, 2011
I tried using ExtPhr32 (recommended earlier ni this discussion) to extract terminology. It worked well, I could easily reduce the outcoming list of terms by defining my "stoplist" and "break set" TXT files. However, this tool has one major drawback for me - it uses the ISO 8859-1 character set where some important Czech characters are missing (ž, Ž, ť, Ť) - the first two exist also in Finnish, if I am not mistaken. So if I want to use the term list, I need to add these charactes manually. Trying to specify them in the "additional letter set" didn't help either. Then I found there is a newer version ("ExtPhr33"), but the installation wizard froze twice in a row, so I gave up.
As to AntConc, it is slightly more complicated to learn to use and it doesn't display correctly if you are using different DPI (mine is 144 and I am still willing to keep it).
