The 'Segmentation Rules' window is where you can 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, usually 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.

Existing segmentation rules can be imported using the 'SRX' ('Segmentation Rules eXchange') format.

1. 'New': Create a new Segmentation Rule.
2. 'Edit': Edit the selected Segmentation Rule.
3. 'Delete': Deletes the selected Segmentation Rule.
4. 'Refresh': Refreshes the 'Segmentation Rules' window.

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 for segmenting by InDesign story, if that is required.

NOTE:

The usage of regular expressions is outside the scope of this Knowledge Base.
