Hello
I've been using WF Pro since long time but I have never understood what are penalties in the TM preferences and the different boxes to be checked/unchecked.

I think this can be very important when using TMs, especially large TMs.

Thanks a lot
Lucia

For example, when you activate the box "local TM" and set the value to 5, a 100% match from a local TM will only be shown with a score of 95%, while the same match from a remote TM will still be shown with a score of 100%. (Such a setting can be useful if you want to prioritize a remote TM.)

What "attribute" is about, I have no idea ▲ Collapse
