Features of PCT Ver 2.1

The PCT makes use of the mouse tracking technology, allowing users quickly find out the meaning of a foreign word right under the mouse pointer. This function provides users the most convenient way to look up meanings of words during document reading, and thus increases the efficiency in reading foreign document. The mouse tracking function is compatible with most popular office applications and internet browsers. The accuracy has been greatly improved in this new version.

Regarding the complex conjugations of Portuguese verbs, the PCT language analyzer acts as an important role in the system. It is able to recognize up to 50 different forms of a single verb as it varies according to number, tense, etc.
The breakthrough of windows language limitation done by PCT 2.1 makes it possible to perform bi-directional translation between Portuguese and Chinese under both Western and Chinese language platforms. This version has been tested on Microsoft Windows 95/98/ME Chinese and English edition.
The PCT supports English and Chinese interface, is easy to install with its wizard interface and intuitive to user.
