TransPerfect announced the launch of GlobalLink OneLink JS, an extension of the GlobalLink OneLink website localization platform. GlobalLink OneLink automates the process of translating and releasing websites. With nothing to install, OneLink may not require IT involvement and requires no client-side project management. Organizations can launch new multilingual websites in as few as 30 days and maintain them in sync with their source with automated change detection. Built on a new JavaScript-based architecture, OneLink JS is the next generation of the OneLink product family. As an alternative to the HTTP proxy approach, OneLink JS functions without the complex engineering typically associated with localization of sites authored in JavaScript. With OneLink JS, users can:
- Localize websites built with HTML or JavaScript frameworks, including React, Angular, and Vue.js
- Reduce overall costs and turnaround times to launch digital content into multiple languages
- Track up-to-date global usage of translated websites with JavaScript-generated tracking metrics
- Edit translations in real time with our WYSIWYG in-context review
- Translate content behind the firewall or in QA/testing areas without IT involvement
- Integrate with neural AI or MT engines.

Markzware, a software developer for the printing, publishing and graphic design industries, added QXPMarkz macOS, with InDesign 2021 support, to the Q2ID bundle. If you own a current, qualifying Q2ID License, you can use the License Link provided to you at the time of purchase, to access the update. QXPMarkz, part of the new “Markz” line of applications, is replacing Q2ID. The stand-alone QXPMarkz application allows you to convert and open your QuarkXPress documents in Adobe InDesign, without the need for the QuarkXPress application. QXPMarkz converts Quark files to IDML, which opens up several possibilities. Mainly, it allows you to convert Quark files to InDesign without having QuarkXPress loaded on your computer, but, it also allows you to send those IDML files to Affinity Publisher version 1.8 or higher.
QXPMarkz also has the ability to export the text out of a QXP file and save it as plain text, RTF or HTML. Another trick is you get a rough preview of the QXP file. This preview can be exported as several different bitmap formats including PNG and JPEG. And finally, you can view a file inspector panel with file details, including the number of images and fonts detected in the QXP file. System requirements for QXPMarkz include macOS 10.12 or newer, 4GB of RAM, 1024×768 display, and an Internet connection. (Note: A Windows version is in the works.) For those who would like a perpetual license of QXPMarkz, you can purchase via the QXPMarkz page on the markzware.com website and through authorized Resellers.
