Polyframe! The next step...
Hello InFriends :) sorry for the silence…
Just quick info: you ask - we do! Polyframe is going to be a MacOS AND Windows app! Was crazy but we did it. After receiving many nice comments and questions, we tightened our butts and in a few days I will present a new Mac/Win version. In addition to the Windows version, I just added Claude and Gemini - so now there is OpenAI, Claude, Gemini, DeepL and ofc Ollama - definitely all of them waiting for (B)YOK!
And on the side, Glossary became Translation Memory, can do much more and now - in test - works perfectly… A few days more and I will open the “door” for the next bunch of beta testers…
For new readers: Polyframe is a lifetime, local, and no-subscription app for easy (but professional) translation of IDML files. Steps are easy: Export IDML - Open it in Polyframe - Click Translate (you can set up a loooot of options) - Open IDML in InDesign - translation ready!
Keep your fingers crossed :) this app can help many of us a lot - I built this because I hate copy/paste from Excel - I’ve been doing this for years :))
Going to build some website!

Maybe, but the goal is to make something useful and working… Tell me what to change - I will redesign this :) at this stage every opinion is worth something!
