Too time-consuming! Now you can translate web-pages, electronic mail and other documents without opening online-translation sites and buying expensive bulky programs. This free translator is always at hand – you simply need to select the text with your mouse!

Supports free XDXF dictionaries
XDXF (XML Dictionary eXchange Format) – a project comprising all of the existing open dictionaries.
With the dictionaries installed you can not only obtain the full-text translation, but also dictionary definitions of the selected text (even if there is no internet connection). The translator supports transcription if there is one in the dictionary base. The maximum number of installed dictionaries is not specified. You can download dictionaries from the XDXF project website. Download the dictionary, decompress the .xdxf file. Then select ‘Install Dictionary’ from the program menu. Select your .xdxf file at the opening dialogue and click on the ‘Install Dictionary’ key to launch the installation. The installation can take several minutes depending on the dictionary size and the computer capacity.
