User Manual for TransAIde Plugin for Trados Studio

New, signed LanguageTool – Grammar and Spell Checker Plugin 4.0.6.2024 for Trados Studio 2024.

Check your translation for spelling and grammar issues. LanguageTool Plugin is a verification module used to find and correct grammar, spelling, and other errors. This plugin integrates the LanguageTool grammar checker into Trados Studio and enables spelling and grammar checking. LanguageTool is an open-source project that supports English, French, German, Dutch, Polish, Portuguese, and more than 20 other languages. It finds many errors and grammar issues that a simple spell checker cannot detect.

Change Log:

• Change of Java Runtime Environment (JRE)
  • LanguageTool from version 6.6 requires JRE 17. This required a change from JRE 11 to JRE 17 in plugin. The plugin version 4.0.6 uses JRE 17. Both the new JRE version and the new LT version can be downloaded and setup directly from the plugin using the Setup Wizard.
  • After installing the new LT version (from 6.6), it will not be possible to start the local LT server when using older versions of the plugin.
• Changed the method of storing user credentials
  • Credential Manager in Windows is no longer used to store user credentials. The ability to authenticate with email and password has been removed. Currently, the only authentication option is email and API key. This requires re-entering the user’s email and API key
• Fixed minor bugs and errors related to the plugin setup
  • Fixed resolving the user folder path
  • Unified endpoint addresse

Setup notes

Local server
If you are using a local server and have/had a working Java/LanguageTool setup on your computer, then all you need to do after installing the plugin is click Restore plugin defaults on the LanguageTool Settings tabs and then OK (or anything other than Cancel/close the window). When you reopen the LanguageTool Settings window, you should already see a green bird on the Plugin setup tab.
If you haven’t already had Java/LanguageTool configured, e.g. in Studio 2022, then you simply need to run the Setup Wizard (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KmifHXcxJeM) to download and install Java and LanguageTool. In fact, you can always run Setup Wizard to download the latest version of Java and LanguageTool.

Premium cloud
If you are using the Premium Cloud, you do not need to do anything, just select LanguageTool Premium as the server type.
