Support Languages and Translations

ClearTrial suggests languages based on the locations specified. You can add or remove languages and dialects as needed.

You can specify whether to translate (and back-translate) all documents, or no documents, or specify which documents are to be translated. Your edit mode determines the fields shown. For more information about any field, click the field name to display online help.

  1. On the Locations tab, click Add Language(s).
  2. On the Choose Additional Languages screen, select the languages to add and click Ok.
    The selected languages appear in a table under the selected locations.
  3. For each row, in the Dialects/Variations column, increase or decrease the number that appears to indicate the number of translations required.
  4. For each language, specify which documents to translate: all, none, or specific documents.

    If you select Specified Documents, for each document select one or more translation options:

    • To translate the document, select the Translate check box.
    • To translate the document back into the original language, select Back Translate. Comparison of a back-translation with the original text is sometimes used as a check on the accuracy of the original translation.
    • To prevent the translation cost from being automatically calculated, select As Pass-Through Cost. You can then add the translation cost on the Costs tab.
    • Apply the document translations to additional languages by selecting the check boxes of the languages shown under the table.
  5. Click Ok to add the translations required to the plan.
  6. Click Next.
