Q: If the web page has a video with subtitles or an audio track like a podcast, does it transcribe and TTS?
A: Yes, Smartcat can transcribe audio tracks from videos or podcasts and offers Text-to-Speech (TTS) capabilities. When you upload a video or audio file, the platform automatically transcribes the spoken content into subtitles. This process includes generating original subtitles from the audio, which can then be translated into your desired languages using Smartcat's AI technology. Additionally, Smartcat provides options for creating natural-sounding voiceovers in multiple languages, enhancing the accessibility and engagement of your multimedia content.
Q: Are there frame size limits?
A: There are no specific size limits for frame sizes in Smartcat. Users have successfully utilized the plugin for a variety of content sizes. However, the effectiveness may depend on how your frames are set up. It's recommended to try it out, and if any issues arise, support is available to assist you.
Q: Do you generate spoken translations in regional dialects when doing text-to-speech after the translation of transcribed text?
A: In video workflows, the choice of voices drives the different accents available for AI voiceovers. Users can select from a growing range of voices, which allows for various regional accents to be utilized. The selection of voices is continuously expanding, providing more options for customization in audio content.
Q: Can the AI use RAG for additional context to influence translation choices?
A: The AI in Smartcat can be trained and prompted to improve translation quality. AI translation is highly customizable, allowing for pre-training with specific content to enhance the initial output quality. Additionally, users can provide custom prompts to instruct the AI on how to perform translation tasks, addressing specific company or brand voice requirements and terminology preferences.
Currently, while prompting can be done through the user interface, fine-tuning the engines is not yet available in the UI and requires a semi-manual process on the backend. However, users can utilize self-service custom prompts to guide the AI's performance. While documentation for context cannot be added during prompting at this time, fine-tuning can be accomplished in the background
Q: Is there any easy way to extract only the necessary part from the Figma frame by the plugin if I only need to translate specific lines?
A: Yes, Smartcat allows you to choose whether to translate all nested elements within your content or to exclude specific elements on an individual basis. This provides fine control over which parts of the content are translated. Once you configure these settings in the design, they will be remembered across all your languages, allowing you to easily translate only what you need.
Q: Does Figma generate images from text?
A: Smartcat allows users to export content from Figma in various formats, including images, once the translation is complete. Additionally, Smartcat supports generative AI workflows and image translation workflows, providing further options for content creation and localization.
Q: What did you use to create your English frame — can I extract a PDF page and upload it to have it translated?
A: The workflow for translating content in Smartcat is best suited for materials created natively in Figma. For PDF files, Smartcat supports direct uploads, and the quickest way to achieve good results is to upload the source file directly. In localization, best practices suggest translating where the content is originally created, which makes the Figma workflow particularly beneficial for users working in that environment.
