This paper is concerned with new technologies applied to translation, focusing specifically on an application of computational linguistics: automatic webpage summarisation. The impact of automatic extraction on the translator’s documentation process is explored using three sets of study data: a) the multilingual macrocorpus Turicor; b) a multilingual automatic extraction system available free-of-charge on the web, called SweSum; and c) a webpage pertaining to the Spanish company Pullmantur. After analysing an example in Spanish of automatically extracted terms and conditions of package tours, specifically cruises, we highlight the advantages of automatic webpage summarisation in legal and tourist translation between Spanish and English, from the point of view of terminology, subject content, syntax and documentation.
