    • 2 Comments
    It would be great if it was possible to surface Japanese/Chinese source word counts in the "Analyze Files" tab. Trados Studio 2017 is able to count Japanese/Chinese words, but currently, the report in the "Analyze Files" tab only shows the pure character...

    Studio 2017 should really be able to support Flare "target" (.fltar) files as these always contain translatable content and our current workaround is to manually copy/paste translated content into these target files outside of Studio, however that's really...

    It happens very often that I get a high match, 98% for example in which the text is very similar, even identical, but there are several tags. It obviously takes time to put those tags in, and as often as not it is simpler to copy source to target and...
