Hullo,
I fear I already know the answer, but if I translate a Studio project in MemoQ, is there any way to get a preview in Word that I can edit and import back into the MemoQ project?

Thanks,

Olly

MemoQ. Same proble. I have an SDLXLIFF I'd like to revise in Word & then import back Mar 2, 2017

Have tried just about anything but can't see if this can be done. I was sent an SDL package with a file containing text for translation and some parts already in my source languge for revision. I needed to export/convert the SDLXLIFF file to Word to print and revise existing source text (while tracking changes) to reimport and then send on to the customer in a return package and with the separate Word file. Is this possible?

I have since heard from MemoQ about this and they say it is not possible to export a Word file from an sdlxliff in MemoQ. You can export a bilingual Word table for review...

MemoQ should consider making this possible Mar 3, 2017

Thank you Olly. I have indeed used the two column export option to revise a text and this works fine. However, in this particular case, where I needed to translate in MemoQ, export to Word to revise the English (that already existed) while tracking the changes, and then to send the Word document back to the customer ... MemoQ could not perform.
