Text Translation

The mouse click on the Pragma icon activates text translation in the active application. It can be document, web page, e-mail message or any other text information.

Translation in active application works in MS Word, Internet Explorer, Outlook, Outlook Express, WordPad, Notepad and some other.

If translation is impossible in the chosen application the proper message will be shown. In this case you can try to translate the text in the Fast translation mode.

Translation is made for the selected fragment of text. If there is no selection the whole document is translated.

Fast Translation

This mode is used for translation of text content in different windows. After starting the Pragma Monitor menu the Fast Translation window is opened and translated text is displayed.

When the window of the Fast Translation is displayed on the screen, any saving of the selected text in the Clipboard (combination of the Ctrl+C keys) will run the translation and displaying the translated text in the window. The button "Translation" must be in the pushed state (by default). If the button "Copy" is pushed also the result of translation will be saved in the Clipboard.

The original language of the text is determined automatically. Translation direction and subject of the text is set right here in the status bar of the window:

It is also possible to type and translate separate words or phrases in the Fast Translation window if the "In Line" button is pushed.
