Hi,
SDL XLIFF files can be handled swiftly in CafeTran. Perhaps one day CafeTran will be able to open SDL packages too .... See more

| One step less | Sep 10, 2012 |
Steps 3 and 4 can be reduced to one step:
Word:mac 2011, Preferences | Authoring and Proofing tools | General | Confirm conversion at open = Checked
Confirm import as Unicode LE.

| Word for Windows can detect Unicode LE automatically | Sep 11, 2012 |
If you're using the Windows version of Microsoft Word, the good thing is that this software obviously can recognize the specific Unicode version (UTF-16 LE) automatically. Handy for macros.

But how about packages of that other CAT tool, Transit NXT?
While we are waiting for a Transit filter, you can use this work-around.
Thanks a lot, Hans, for these detailed instructions! I've never been asked to translate Transit projects in my entire career so far, but it's good to know a workaround is available.

That could be depending on your working languages: in Germany (especially in heavy industry) Transit is still very important.
BTW: Will you be at the BDÜ-Konferenz in Berlin? (STAR will be there  )

| pretranslated files? | Sep 13, 2012 |
Hi Hans,
What if the file was pretranslated with exact and fuzzy matches, any solutions for that?

Hi Selçuk,
You could have a look at the PlusToyz macro. I think the segment status attributes haven't changed since Transit XP. You'll probably need a HEX editor.
Please report back.
Cheers,
Hans
PS Rumour has it that CafeTran will offer a basic Transit filter in the not so far away future.

Yes, that must be it. I don't work with German and haven't got clients in Germany. 99% of my clients are in Finland, and although Star does have their own office here, I've never worked for them.

No, I won't be at BDÜ. However, I've seen the Transit guys several times at SFÖ in Sweden.
Are you saying you now prefer translating Transit projects in CafeTran rather than in Transit?

No I'm hoping that the filter will be available later this year. Then I'd like to do everything in CafeTran.
It has always been my principle to do everything in one CAT tool. Since development of Transit has stopped, I had to look for an alternative.

Do you mean the news are exciting, or Transit is exiting from the market?
You did say that "development of Transit has stopped", though I was not sure how to understand it.
