Creating an Edit Distance Report
Attention
If you exchange data via crossGrid or crossWAN, the option Exchange change history information must be enabled. Otherwise, no information will be available concerning the change history of paragraphs, and the edit distance cannot be calculated.
The Edit Distance Report contains information on the edit distance of texts across the various workflow steps. Thus, you can see exactly which sentences have been edited (or post-edited in the case of machine translations), and to what extent.
- To create the report, proceed as follows:
- In the Projects module, select the project for which you want to create a report.
- Click Reports under the top right project window or click the
icon in the Across toolbar in order to start the Report Wizard to generate reports.
Once the wizard has started, click Next.
- Check any existing reports and click Next.
- Select EDR - Edit Distance Report and click Next.
- If necessary, select or deselect certain documents or languages.
Click Next.
- Determine which paragraph states are to be compared and which paragraphs are to be taken into consideration in the report.
Click Finish to generate the report.
- The report will appear in a separate window. Among other things, it provides information on the entire document editing distance and on the editing distance of individual paragraphs (depending on which options you selected for the comparison).
- Click
in order to save the report in the HTML, XLSX, or XML format.
