Shortly after the release for Xbench 3.0 of the Korean spell-checking dictionary a few days ago, we’ve added spell-checking support for 14 more languages based on Hunspell dictionaries.
Languages added in this batch are:

We’ve added another video to our YouTube Channel on a very typical use case of Xbench: Using Xbench checklists to gather client feedback.
You will see that the checklist feature in Xbench can be quite handy to help us ensure that we do not forget previous client feedback next time we receive a job from the same client.
The video is found here. We hope you find it useful!

We’ve posted a new video on YouTube that will show you how the spell-checking feature works in Xbench.
Spell-checking in Xbench is a feature that can be very handy when you are unsure if you spell-checked each of the many small files in this project that you are about to deliver, or if you want to double-check that the translator you outsourced this job to did not forget to spell-check everything.
You can watch the video here.

We’re happy to announce that we have put in place a special promotion until September 30, 2013 for GALA members. ApSIC has been a GALA member for more than 10 years and the association has grown twenty-fold since, and now has hundreds of members.
We think that GALA makes a significant impact with its quest to educate the marketplace with the real value of translation and localization services. To help spread the message, GALA relies on a growing membership.
We would like to support that effort with a special Xbench promotion that aims to give more value to GALA’s membership and also to encourage even more companies to join GALA:
This promotion applies both to existing Xbench customers willing to extend their subscriptions and to new Xbench customers.
You can place your order at www.xbench.net. To redeem your awarded years, simply tell us that you are a GALA member — or that you just joined GALA — in reply to the email that you will receive to confirm your Xbench subscription years have been added to your account.

There is something unconventional in Xbench 30-day trial that we would like to share with you: Xbench 3.0 trial days refer to real use days, not to calendar days.
As you know, the traditional 30-day trial is the exploding one: you start it and 30 days later it is over. It does not matter if you did not find the time to actually evaluate the software at all. It effectively means that, in many cases, you barely are able to test if installing and uninstalling works.
When we set up the Xbench 3.0 evaluation program, we decided that in order to give you proper time to evaluate if the product is really for you or not, our trial would be based on the actual days the product is used.
So if you get hooked with Xbench and quickly become an avid user using it 5 days a week, you will finish your trial after some 45 calendar days.
Conversely, if you are are always too busy with other stuff and only have time to check Xbench once a month, your trial will last almost 3 years.
We hope you like our approach for trials. If you want to evaluate Xbench 3.0, simply go to www.xbench.net and download it. After you sucessfully complete your sign up, your 30-day trial will start automatically. Enjoy!
