Ando Tools

What is it? Ando Tools is a free package of MS Word and Excel add-ons designed for translators, proofreaders and localization engineers. Is it useful? It boosts quality while saving time with features that are not supported by word processors and CAT tools. Check out the benefits when performing common tasks. Read the built-in help and online tips to effectively integrate Ando Tools with your workflows. You can use it with both Trados and Wordfast. Excelate is a very useful add-in.

 

Quintilian and other MS macros
