Terminology Translation Dictionary

[MikeTO]

Using Affinity Publisher in English can be challenging for non-English users. To make using it somewhat easier, I've created a dictionary of hundreds of Affinity terms translated into Dutch, Polish, Ukrainian, Swedish, Norwegian, Danish, and Finnish. This dictionary is specifically for Publisher but most of it applies to Photo and Designer, too.

Note: I included the Dutch, Polish, and Ukrainian dictionary in an appendix of my Publisher 2.5 manual, but I will remove that for its next edition. This standalone dictionary is slightly expanded and uses an A4 layout for easier printing and reference.

Choose the file for your language:

Terminology-nl-pl-ua.pdf - Nederlands, Polski, Yкраїнська

Terminology-se-no-dk-fi.pdf - Svenska, Norsk, Dansk, Suomi

Please let me know of any errors or suggestions.

Tip: If you use Affinity Publisher in English but create documents in another language, you may wish to read the Getting Start section of my free Publisher manual for instructions on setting the default spelling and hyphenation languages.

Thank you for this PDF file.  Some words are inside (space?) or is this intentional.  Dutch dictionary.

Hi Wim, I'm not sure I understand what you mean by "inside". Do you meant indented from the words above or below? If so, that is intentional - for the panels, I indented the panels that are in submenus to mirror the menu command structure. For related terms, such as "Orientation" and "Portrait / Landscape", I indented the latter under Orientation because it's related to Orientation. I thought this indenting might make the long lists of terms easier to browse.

There isn't a perfect way to organize long static lists like this - I thought about sorting them alphabetically in English so that you could more easily find an English term, but they need to be divided into categories and the categories may not match how you think about the terms. I'm open to other suggestions though.

Cheers

Yes, those are the indented terms I was referring to. If you look at the Window menu in Publisher, you'll see that References has a submenu of commands - I indented those panel names in the quick reference chart to match the menu command structure to make it easier to find a panel in this long list.

There’s no ł in the English alphabet. ‘Wypełnienie’ is a Polish word.

Sorry, I didn't look properly, you're right.

Thanks for the corrections! I'll share a new version in a week or two.

But @Return, could you tell me what changes you suggested? I don't see any highlighting for the ones you are suggesting changes to and there are hundreds so I don't want to go through them one by one.

Also please delete the zip attached to your post because it contains commercial fonts that can't be shared in this forum.

Thank you
