General

  • Administrator users can now export a list of current users and customers to an Excel file directly from the user interface.

Project Management

  • There is a new option in Advanced search for PMs to find projects based on full or partial file names.

  • XTM now supports the MT edit distance calculation based on the CharactTER algorithm. This is a character-based metric that divides the number of edits made to a target segment by the total number of characters in that segment.

  • When creating a project, it is now possible to have files grouped automatically in the UI and via the API by DITA structure, file extensions, number of files, or number of groups.

File processing

  • A new file filter is available in XTM to process Sketch files.

  • XTM now supports Microsoft Visio files in .vsdx format.

Workbench

  • The XTM Workbench docked panel now includes a dedicated QA tab for improved visibility and optimized error handling.

  • Linguists can now easily distinguish between project and file repetitions from within the docked panel.

  • Linguists have new Unicode characters to use in XTM Workbench:

    • Zero Width No-Break Space

    • Zero Width Non-Joiner

    • Zero Width Joiner

    • Object Replacement Character

    • Non-Breaking Hyphen

    • Soft Hyphen

NLP

  • The handling of inline tags in aligned segments have been improved: the IDs of inline tags in source segments correspond to the IDs of the inline tags in target segments.

  • The Bilingual Terminology Extraction feature now automatically excludes terms that are already in the terminology of a given Customer to obtain an even more refined and specific bilingual dictionary.

Translation Memory Management

  • TM tags can now be flexibly assigned to every source file independently when creating a project, updating source files and within continuous projects.

XTM API

  • The API callback functionality has been extended with a failover mechanism to ensure that callbacks are sent repeatedly to the endpoint when it is unavailable.

  • There are new REST API methods to:

    • Delete source files from existing projects

    • Create projects with different workflows and target languages for each source file

    • Change the workflow at a job level

    • Generate an aggregated Excel extended report including all project languages
