Store hotword and glossary definitions in a database for easy retrieval from
ToolBook.
Goodbye Glossary Books
No longer do you need to store your definitions in a special
glossary ToolBook file. Hotword Connection manages your definitions, displays
your popup definitions, and implements your glossary.
Special Tools
Hotword Connection has special author-level tools for creating the database
based on your ToolBook file. ToolBook Translation System and Hotword Connection
then have special “Translator” applications for creating and editing your other
source databases field by field, caption by caption, and definition by
definition. You can even send the Translator applications onto your translation
team!

Wow…worked great! All I have to do now is just to expand the fields in some of the text panes and select the field and click on “selection bounds & fonts” under “Write properties” to update the database. This is really great Jeff!!!!! Huge time saver for us!

Here is what you get for $895: 1. The ability to take your ToolBook program and essentially with the touch of a button dump all of the text into an Access database. 2. A Translator tool that you send off to your translators. Your translators do not need to have ToolBook to use it. The translator tool shows the "English" text on the bottom of the screen. Your translator puts
the foreign language translation in the top of the translator screen. When the translator is done, he/she saves the file and sends the database file back to you. 3. You can now add buttons to your program for English version, Spanish version, etc. Your users can select the language they wish to use and the ToolBook will be populated with that language.

Here is another example of how we use Content connection: Our programs are geared toward manufacturing companies, but the topics are also relevant for service companies, but require a "translation." No problem... we handle it just like a foreign translation. Extend this idea to doing "custom" versions of programs for various customer groups/types to meet specific needs and you have a very powerful tool for under $1,000.

TB Connection is an excellent tool that is very helpful for translating a ToolBook file. If you have to send the text out to a translator, the ability is there in TB Connection. You can also edit and change the text in the database app. Even better yet, you can set up the ToolBook application to switch languages when a user launches the app by using system books. I'd give Platte Canyon a call and someone there would be able to tell you more about it.

We just recently translated one of our programs to Chinese using Platte Canyon's TB Connection and associated translators (great programs BTW).
