Alchemy PUBLISHER and Alchemy CATALYST come with several Machine Translation plug-ins.  However, only one Machine Translation plug-in can be active at any one time. These plug-ins are stored in the PLUGIN folder on your desktop machine.

Configuring PROMT Connector

  1. Go to your Plugin folder. You'll find this on your desktop PC. Depending on your operating system it will be located in one of the following folders:

    • Microsoft Vista = C:\Users\Public\Alchemy Software\Publisher 3.0

    • All other Microsoft OS = C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Alchemy Software\Publisher 3.0

  2. By default, two Machine Translation plug-ins are provided . These are: GoogleMT.DLL and PromtConnector.DLL.  Since only one of these can be active at any one time, delete the plug-in that you do not want to use.

  3. Now restart Alchemy CATALYST/PUBLISHER to activate your remaining MT plugin. The machine translation connector  will now be copied to the PLUGIN folder on your desktop machine.

If you have more than one Machine Translation plugin installed on your machine, Alchemy will select the one that comes alphabetically from the PLUGIN folder and use this to provide machine translation services.
