SWIFT 5.2

Send Word Immediately For Translation

Note: Because DBT has been specifically enhanced to support the new features of SWIFT, SWIFT 5.2 only works correctly in DBT 12.2 SR1 or above.

This add-in is quite a powerful tool that can save time preparing documents in Word.

The first time you run Word after installing SWIFT, you are presented with the Options dialog. While you may return to this dialog at any time, you may wish to consider your personal settings at this time.

Word now displays an additional "Braille" ribbon as shown here.

If this is your first time using SWIFT, you may wish to look at the Options settings in detail.
