Translation : Would it be possible for AVID to put its manual online, in HTML version

[cmbourget]

Given that there have been no translations of PT documents for years (in French in my case), would it be possible for AVID to put its manual online, in HTML version, so that you can use Google translate or others to obtain the text in the language of your choice? This is a very useful and increasingly widespread practice. Thank you Avid for thinking of this.

Hi There!

I found this but it's for the earlier version. https://resources.avid.com/SupportFi..._2022.4_FR.pdf
Let me check with the team and get back to you.

Thank you!

Haven't tried all browsers, but any browser that can open a PDF should work. I use Edge to read PDFs. You can install the Google translate extension in the browser, open the PDF in the browser and then highlight the text you want translated. Right-click highlighted and translate.

It's the quick guide. I'm talking about the big reference manual. PT has come a long way in the last few years, so there are many new technical points, including of course Doby Atmos.

Yes, I do this occasionally (also with Deepl), but it's not comfortable, because it's always in small parts. An html version would be much more useful.
