Works perfectly !
By Patricia Cardet
SDL Trados just ignores the Mac users. It is expensive, the updates are expensive, innovations are rare, the technical support is not responsive. Swordfish is a multi-platform tool. It is relatively cheap, the updates are free. It is a rather new product. Innovations, improvements are coming in regularly. The technical support and the forum are super responsive. The TMX files are Trados compatible. No more SDL Trados for me !!!!!
