Hello,

I would like to know how to align a partial translation. I am working on a very large project. I started translating it using Word (since I had only a hard copy), and now I have the digital version and I want to continue it with Across. But I want to use the chapter I already translated. I tried to align it, but it did not work, since the chapter I translated is not the very beginning of the file. Can I somehow tell Across in which paragraph to start the alignment, so that the translation and source will match?

Thanks ▲ Collapse

Simply create new files that only contain the translated part and align those.

There is a special option in Alignment Wizard Jun 5, 2012

When you do manual corrections in Alignment wizard, there is a special button in toolbar: "automatically connect from currently selected nodes". I guess this could work for you, you just need to select nodes which do match.
