COINS Translate
Win32 and 64, EnglishGeneral Usage Instructions
Once loaded, typing COINSTRANSLATE on the command line will start the routine. When run, the user is prompted to select any text, mtext, attributed blocks, multi-leaders, or dimensions that should be translated.
A dialog is then displayed allowing the user to choose the language to translate from, and the language to translate to. When choosing the language to translate from, the "Detect Language" option can be chosen (at the top of the "From" list) which will automatically try and detect the source language.
"Translate Single and Double Quotes" controls whether quotes are sent to the translation engine. If your document uses quotes to represent feet and inches then this should be turned off, but if the quotes are used in normal language then it should be turned on to achieve the best results. A working internet connection is needed to run this translation tool.
