I have them set up so that the extra monitor is to the right of the main one.&nbsp;<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">I use the larger one as main monitor, because it lets me view two documents next to each other, e.g. two text documents or a text document and a pdf, when I am proofreading, checking formatting etc. It also offers lots of space, i.e. information (TM view, termbank view etc.), when I work with my translation tools, which makes things a lot easier and faster in my opinion.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">The smaller monitor to the right is my reference monitor. Here I have my web browser, my dictionaries and any reference documents open, so I don&#8217;t have to constantly switch between programs while translating. Another plus is that I can write e-mails on the main computer and have any documents, websites etc. I might need to peruse or reference to in the mail open on the second monitor, again making switching back and forth unnecessary.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">I cannot imagine working with only one monitor &#8211; regardless how large &#8211; anymore, and have a hard time adjusting whenever I have to work on my laptop and just that one monitor. A colleague of mine is even thinking about adding a third monitor, but aside from the fact that I&#8217;m not sure how to connect a third monitor to the computer, I&#8217;m not sure what I would use it for. I&#8217;ll probably buy a larger monitor in the future and then use my current main monitor as second one, but then I&#8217;d probably toss out the smallest one. Three would be just too much &#8211; and besides, I would need a bigger desk, too &#8211; again! &#8211; , so, no, no third monitor for me (for now).<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I know, opinions are split on this one, but I have been working with two monitors ever since I started working as a freelancer full-time, and I wouldn&#8217;t want it any other way.&nbsp; First I used an additional monitor to the one on my laptop, then, when I had my desktop PC custom-build, I bought [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"om_disable_all_campaigns":false,"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":false,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[1],"tags":[90,424,614],"class_list":["post-10091","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-unkategorisiert","tag-english","tag-essential-office-equipment","tag-office","entry"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"aioseo_notices":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.a-z-translations.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10091"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.a-z-translations.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.a-z-translations.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.a-z-translations.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.a-z-translations.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=10091"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.a-z-translations.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10091\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":10342,"href":"https:\/\/www.a-z-translations.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/10091\/revisions\/10342"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.a-z-translations.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=10091"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.a-z-translations.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=10091"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.a-z-translations.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=10091"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
