Total Eclipse Training at Midyear

[Update:  The live seminar has been cancelled due to a run-in with a flight of stairs. We'll have more information soon about the DVD version.  Thanks!] 

Auto Brief and Translation Magic

See for yourself two of the most amazing features that Advantage Software has ever come out with, Auto Brief and Translation Magic!

Did you know that now you can just write words phonetically, and they will come out, even if you’ve never heard of them before and they’re not in your dictionary? Yowza! This is not your granny’s phonetic untranslates… it’s RIGHT ON! You won’t even believe it!

Then there’s Auto Brief, which ever-so-politely suggests job dictionary entries while you’re in realtime. You know that if they say “herniated nucleus pulposus” once, they’re going to say it all day long, right? Might as well go ahead and just write that brief that Total Eclipse suggested for you, and it automatically goes in your job dictionary!

Translation Magic and Auto Brief are your secret weapons on those days you’re in over your head. It’s like you have your own virtual assistant looking up the words for you in realtime, globaling them and offering briefs, all in a split second, with no extra work on your part. If you loved your Eclipse before, you will definitely fall in love all over again! Truly, this changes EVERYTHING!

In this training class, we’ll not only show you the features, we’ll make sure understand how to implement them for maximum benefit.
