a scroll unit for controlling the content data display unit and the text data editor unit to be scrolled together on the display screen, according to an input on the scroll unit by the user to scroll either of the content data display unit or the text data editor unit;

wherein the content data display unit is displayed in the first area of the transactions editor on the display unit simultaneously with the text data editor unit displayed in the second area of the translations editor on the display unit, so that a visual arrangement of the plurality of first-language unit text with the corresponding plurality of images in the content data display unit is visible to the user and provides context to the plurality of first-language unit text when the user inputs the translation of the plurality of first-language unit texts in the second-language text input units of the text data editor unit.

2. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the content data further comprises location data representing location information of each of the first-language unit texts in the image data.

3. The apparatus of claim 2 , wherein the content data display unit comprises:

an image data display unit on which the image data is displayed; and

a plurality of text data display units in which the text data is displayed on units of the at least one first-language unit text.

4. The apparatus of claim 3 , wherein each of the plurality of unit text editor unit, which respectively correspond to the plurality of text data display units of the content data display unit, is located proximate to the corresponding text data display unit.

5. The apparatus of claim 3 , wherein, when the content data display unit is scrolled, the scroll unit controls one of the at least one unit text editor unit, which corresponds to a location of a currently displayed region of the image data scrolled and moved, to be displayed on the text data editor unit, based on the location information of each of the at least one first-language unit text.

6. The apparatus of claim 3 , wherein, when the text data editor unit is scrolled, the unit controls a region of the image data to be displayed on the content data display unit, based on the location information of a first-language unit text corresponding to one of the at least one unit text editor unit which is scrolled and currently displayed.

7. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the scroll unit is provided in the content data display unit for scrolling the image data in at least one direction, and

wherein, when the scroll unit is operated to scroll the image data according to a user input, the text data editor unit is scrolled together with the image data.

8. The apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the scroll unit is provided in the text data editor unit for scrolling the text data editor unit in at least one direction, and

wherein, when the scroll unit is operated to scroll the text data editor unit according to a user input, the image data is scrolled together with the text data editor unit.

9. A method of providing a translations editor for translating content, on a display screen of at least one user terminal, the method comprising:

displaying, by a processor, text data and image data together on a first area of the translations editor on a content data display unit, wherein the text data and the image data are extracted from content data in which the text data is stored separately from the image data, the text data includes a plurality of first-language unit texts image data includes a plurality of images corresponding to the plurality of first-language unit texts, and the plurality of first-language unit text are displayed separately from each other along with the corresponding plurality of images of the image data;

displaying, by a processor, a text data editor unit on a second area of the translations editor adjacent the content data display unit and including a plurality of unit text editor units displayed simultaneously on the translations editor, each unit text editor unit including a first-language text display unit for displaying a first-language text included in the text data, and a second-language text input unit in which a translation of the first-language text is input by a user of the user terminal; and

scrolling, by a processor, the content data display unit and the text data editor unit together on the display screen, according to an input on the scroll unit by the user to scroll either of the content data display unit or the text data editor unit;

wherein the content data display unit is displayed in the first area of the translations editor on the display unit simultaneously with the text data editor unit displayed in the second area of the translations editor on the display unit, so that a visual arrangement of the plurality of first-language unit text with the corresponding plurality of first-language unit text when the user inputs the translation of the plurality of first-language unit texts in the second-language text input units of the text data editor unit.

10. The method of claim 9 , wherein the content data further comprises location data representing location information of each of the first-language unit texts in the image data.

11. The method of claim 10 , wherein the content data display unit comprises:
