The Segmentation Rules dialog is where you manage the Segmentation Rules for your one2edit™ Workspace.
What are Segmentation Rules?
Segmentation Rules are sets of regular expressions (regex) that can be applied to specific languages. Regular expressions are a standard way to match strings of text.
Segmentation of a document involves partitioning InDesign® stories into smaller segments, typically for translation purposes. By default, text is segmented into paragraphs when a one2edit project is created. These rules may be customized, depending on your project requirements.
Segmentation Rules can be imported in the SRX (Segmentation Rules eXchange) format.
Segmentation Rules Dialog
- Segmentation Rules: List of Segmentation Rules in the Workspace.
- New Segmentation Rules: Click here to create a new set of Segmentation Rules.
- Option Menu: Click here to edit the Segmentation Rule properties, or delete them.
NOTE: There is a default set of Segmentation Rules bundled with the workspace. These default rules will segment selected content into sentence-length segments. There are also segmentation options within one2edit™ for segmenting by InDesign story, if that is required.
NOTE: The creation of regular expressions is outside the scope of this Knowledge Base.
