ArtistScope Translate Common Questions
How does ArtistScope Translate compare with
similar products?
Other solutions such as those provided by Google and others
translate on a word by word basis which can result in a
message that is disjointed and difficult to understand. The words and phrases
included in ArtistScope Translate have been translated with
the proper meaning and tense for use in all web site navigation
and web form responses with the option of changing to any one
of 26 languages by the simple click of a button.
Can ArtistScope Translate be used on
any web site?
ArtistScope Translate can be used on any web site hosted on
a Windows web server with either ASP, CFM, CGI or PHP support
enabled for the web site. Users with FrontPage web sites will
find that ArtistScope Translate is quite simple to install and
easy to add to any existing web pages.
How does ArtistScope Translate
actually work?
Wherever you want words and phrases translated, you simply
replace those words/phrases in your html with its calling tag.
The calling tag is replaced with the translation on the fly
according to the selected/detected language. For example with
ASP (or in FrontPage), to display the phrase or sentence for
"Please check the details below before submitting" you simply
add a tag similar to <%= Artis.Tran("slangPleaseCheck") %>
How do I know which calling tags to
use?
When you register for an ArtistScope Translate license you
will receive the complete inventory of available calling tags
translated in your native language.
How easy is it to install ArtistScope
Translate?
If you have admin rights to the server, all you need to do is
run the server install package to unpack the support DLL and
add it to the registry. Otherwise you will need to get your
web hosting support to install the DLL for you.
Can I use ArtistScope Translate for
all web sites on the server?
Yes. Once the DLL is installed on a server an unlimited number
of web sites can use ArtistScope Translate. However each
domain will need to be licensed to remove the nag screen at
the top of the translated pages.
Can extra languages and phrases be added?
Absolutely. If your native language is not already included in
the standard module, it can be added for free providing you
can provide the translation for that language. Extra words and
phrases can also be added to better support your custom
application.
Why doesn't ArtistScope Translate use an
editable database?
ArtistScope Translate uses a dynamic link library at system
level which is a hundred times faster and can be a thousand
times more resource efficient than using a database that will
be queried by each individual visitor for each page delivered.
