我們的一位譯者花了數週時間準備對照表(interlinear),作為今年稍後與翻譯顧問進行研討會的輔助工具。他已經在 Paratext 8 中完成了使用對照表工具(interlinearizer tool)所需的工作,但顧問們仍然看不到他的工作成果。我後來意識到其中一個問題——他一直在錯誤的專案上執行「Send/Receive」(傳送/接收)。但當我們修正這個問題並正確執行「Send/Receive」後,系統沒有將他的工作傳送給我們,反而將專案管理員的工作傳送給他——由於專案管理員的對照表版本不完整,這實際上抹除了大約 30 章的對照表工作。也許 Paratext 認為管理員的版本較新,因此是正確的版本?我不確定原因。但我們實際上是想要譯者的版本,而不是管理員的版本。我找不到「還原文本」的方法,系統也沒有標記任何衝突或其他問題,因此這些工作基本上必須重做。
我們未來如何避免這個問題?Paratext 是否會繼續採用它認為最新的對照表版本,即使該版本較不完整,從而抹除已完成工作的部分?或者是否有辦法防止這種情況發生?
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?
