Hi All,

I'm editing a translation project with around a dozen files. With some of the files already edited, I ran into some others that were not completely translated. The PM is going to send me a new packet in which all the files will be completely translated, and asked me to create a TM so that the work I've done so far is not lost.

My Trados skills are basic, and I have no idea how to create a TM in this situation. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

While your TM is opened in the TM window, look for the Import tab.
Klick it and choose the bilingual (sdlxliff) to import.
Do it, one at a time for each of your files.
Good luck ▲ Collapse
