More information on the Language Extension Packs Request a trial version Visit distributor's site in English, Français, Deutsch Chinese, Japanese and Korean Text With No Word Breaks Some Chinese, Japanese, and Korean text does not include word breaks. Instead, the text appears as lines of characters with no spaces between the words. Because there are no spaces separating the words on each line, dtSearch sees each line of text as a single long word. To make this type of text searchable, enable automatic insertion of word breaks around Chinese, Japanese, and Korean characters, so each character will be treated as single word. dtSearch Desktop/Network: In Options > Preferences > Letters and Words, check the box to “Insert word breaks between Chinese, Japanese, and Korean characters in text.” dtSearch Developer API: set dtsoTfAutoBreakCJK in Options.TextFlags. Language Analyzer API Integration In addition to the extensive alphabet customization options available across the dtSearch product line, the dtSearch Engine also includes a Language Analyzer API that can be used to integrate morphological analyzers and custom or dictionary-based word breakers into the dtSearch Engine indexing process. The dtSearch Engine also includes an API for substituting a non-English language thesaurus for the existing English-language one. Basis Technology's Rosette® Linguistics Platform Integration The Rosette Linguistics Platform helps unlock the meaning of unstructured text by determining the language, and identifying the basic linguistic features and structure. Relying on code that is unique to each particular language, Rosette results in highly accurate Chinese, Japanese, Korean, and other international language morphological analysis. The Rosette Linguistics Platform integrates with dtSearch search functionality through the dtSearch Engine’s Language Analyzer API.  Essentially, the dtSearch Engine API passes blocks of Unicode text to the Rosette Linguistics Platform and accepts back words to index. For more details on how the two products work together, including a chart detailing the different steps involved in the dtSearch Engine and Rosette API integration, please see dtSearch and Rosette Full-Featured International Search PDF white paper.   See also forensics   The dtSearch product line can instantly search terabytes of text across a desktop, network, Internet or Intranet site. dtSearch products also serve as tools for publishing, with instant text searching, large document collections to Web sites or CD/DVDs. over two dozen indexed, unindexed, fielded and full-text search options highlights hits in HTML, XML and PDF, while displaying embedded links, formatting and images converts other file types — word processor, database, spreadsheet, email and full-text of email attachments, ZIP, Unicode, etc. — to HTML for display with highlighted hits built-in Spider adds a third-party or other Web site (public, secure content, password accessible, etc.) to your searchable database Spider supports Web-based content (HTML, PDF, XML, etc.) as well as dynamically-generated content (ASP.NET, MS CMS, SharePoint, etc.) General supported file types SQL and similar data sources
