Description Dieter 2022-12-19 11:28:52 UTC
Since october 12, we have a new functionality in LO 7.5 : automatic translation using DeepL API.
The commit implementing that is https://git.libreoffice.org/core/+/e20d2de7836da52dbf9e528d1043b1e188097bfd

It is easy to configure the function, once you have open an account at DeepL. You can open a free account for 500.000 characters per month.

So I think we need
a) Help page for this new feature
b) Update of help page "Tools" [1]
c) Update of help page "Language Settings Option" [2]

Thanks for that, Olivier! For the record, the DeepL translation support has been put into experimental mode for the time being, the intention was to do that until there's documentation for it, but there also seem to be some bugs to be ironed out first: https://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/libreoffice/2022-December/089686.html
Comment 5 Olivier Hallot 2023-01-12 14:16:00 UTC
Patched with a warning on the experimental status.
