我们的一位翻译花了数周时间准备逐字对照(interlinear),作为今年晚些时候与翻译顾问进行研讨会的辅助材料。他已经在 Paratext 8 中使用逐字对照工具(interlinearizer tool)完成了所需的工作,但他的工作成果并未显示给顾问。我最终发现了一个问题——他一直在错误的项目上执行“发送/接收”(Send/Receive)。但一旦纠正了这一点并正确执行了“发送/接收”,系统并没有将他的工作发送给我们,而是将项目管理员的工作发送给了他——由于管理员版本的逐字对照是不完整的,这实际上擦除了大约30章的逐字对照工作。也许 Paratext 认为管理员的版本更新,因此是正确的版本?我不确定原因。但我们实际上想要的是翻译的版本,而不是管理员的版本。我找不到“恢复文本”(restore the text)的方法,也没有标记任何冲突或类似情况,因此这些工作基本上必须重做。
我们如何避免将来出现这个问题?Paratext 是否会继续采用它认为最新的逐字对照版本,即使该版本不完整,从而擦除已完成工作的部分?还是有某种方法可以防止这种情况发生?
One of our translators spend several weeks working on preparing an interlinear as an aid for a workshop with translation consultants later this year. He finished what he needed to do with the interlinearizer tool in Paratext 8, but his work was still not showing up for the consultants. I eventually realized one problem - he’d been doing send/receive on the wrong project. But once this was corrected, and we did send/receive correctly, instead of sending his work to us, it sent the project administrator’s work to him - but since the project admin’s version of the interlinear was incomplete, it effectively erased about 30 chapters of interlinear work. Maybe Paratext thought that the admin’s version was newer and therefore the right one? I’m not sure of the reason. But we actually wanted the translator’s version, not the admin’s version. I couldn’t find a way to ‘restore the text’ and it didn’t flag any conflicts or anything, so the work will basically have to be re-done.
How can we avoid this problem in future? Will Paratext continue to take whichever version of the interlinearizer it thinks is newest, even if it’s less complete, thus erasing portions of the work that has been done? Or is there some way to prevent this?
