If you are a hard working translator I bet you have hundreds of special glossaries or dictionaries which you received from clients!

Terminology is one of the most important factors in translation; there is no consistency without terminology. AnyLexic will show you glossaries and dictionaries in convenient way and will simplify process of search for the terms. Standardization is impossible without proper use of terminology.
Terminology glossaries usually consist of two columns, one has terms in source language and in the second column there are corresponding terms in target language. It is convenient form until you have hundreds and hundreds of them... what next? You need an efficient tool to search glossaries in a fast and convenient way. You can do this with AnyLexic!
Terminology becomes even more important when you co-operate with other translators translating one of the parts of a document. When you work with other translators you need to exchange glossaries and dictionaries and to be sure that reader will understand meaning of the specific term in each chapter of the document. This means that all terms will be named consistently and you will not need to fix them. Each translator may translate the word in his way, that is why terminology so important for your work. AnyLexic provides native convenient format of exchanging dictionaries and glossaries, as well, as import and export capabilities in the most widely used glossary and dictionary storage formats ( .CSV – Comma Separated Values, .TXT – text, .XLS – Microsoft Excel).
And all this comes with FULL Unicode support!
