Good day!
I have used OmegaT to translate a basic website and am currently working on the invoice. The issue is - I have been given different charge to use for fuzzy matches, 100% internal matches etc, but I just can't figure out how to use the statistics. The general statistics report shows the whole word count, with no breakdown. The match statistics report shows all of the matches as 'exact'...

I have read the chapter which includes the statistics, but it's still not very clear. Can anyone advise how they go about invoicing with OmegaT? I have used Trados previously and guess have been spoilt as it's very clearly laid out.
Any help would be appreciated! ▲ Collapse

That's because you have finished the translation.
To estimate the work to be done, you have to do the statistics in a new project, including a TMX is one was provided. If none was provided, there will not be any fuzzy matches.

Hi Didier,
Thank you for your reply! As there are some bits of code that will remain untranslated, is there anyway of getting more accurate statistics at the end to ensure that the client only pays for the text translations?

The statistics of the finished project contains the words remaining (as long as the whole segment containing them is not translated), so you can know the number of words actually translated.
