I've been offered a translation. The source format is TXML and the customer wishes me to preserve this format for the translation. The problem is I don't have Wordfast, just MemoQ. Is there any way of working with TXML files in MemoQ without having to navigate through all the mark-up?

TIA!

Isnt' tXML an XML file? Mar 12, 2012

I thought a tXML file was an XML file in the end.

You should be able to import the files into memoQ as XML files. I would try to change the file's extension to XML and give it a try. If it works nicely, then you can import the files in memoQ, without changing the extension, just selecting the XML filter when you use Add document as....

if not, you will have to pre-segment the TXML files as depicted in: http://blog.albatrossolutions.com/tent-cat-tools/translating-wordfast-txml-files-in-memoq

Use memoQ 5.0.53 or later Mar 13, 2012
