WinLexic – Corporate License: 9 PCs

Introduction

WinLexic 2005 is a GUI (Graphic User Interface) to Microsoft Glossaries designed for Technical Translators and Technical Translation Agencies. These glossaries, publicly available from the Microsoft Corporation FTP Server and its mirrors, provide a vast amount of multilingual terminology used in Microsoft software products.

Downloading Microsoft Glossaries Made Easy

Downloading Microsoft Glossaries can be a challenging task due to their large size. With glossaries ranging from 1.05 Mb to 62Mb, downloading them through standard means like Microsoft Internet Explorer can be cumbersome. This usually involves purchasing FTP client software to automate the process. However, WinLexic simplifies this with its built-in FTP client configured to access Microsoft public FTP server or its mirrors, allowing for easy download and transfer resumption.

Save Time and Money with WinLexic

By using WinLexic, you can save approximately USD30 by avoiding the need to purchase additional FTP client software. Additionally, the hassle of downloading and interpreting glossaries is significantly reduced, making the entire process more efficient and cost-effective.

Advanced Search Capabilities

Searching through multiple glossaries using NotePad or Microsoft Excel can be tedious and limited. WinLexic offers fast search capabilities across multiple Microsoft glossaries simultaneously. It also provides various search options such as Source/Target search, whole word search, case-sensitive search, and searching for the presence of 2 terms or phrases in a single string.

Conclusion

WinLexic is a powerful tool that streamlines the process of accessing and utilizing Microsoft Glossaries for technical translators and anyone working with multilingual terminology in Microsoft software products. With its user-friendly interface, built-in FTP client, and advanced search features, WinLexic offers a convenient and efficient solution for managing and interpreting glossaries.
