    It would be able to have an Import/Export button within the Word List option in Verification/QA Checker.Supposedly, this is a list to tell Trados to consider a list of wrongly spelled or forbidden words. That list can, depending on the project, be huge...

    A Trados project has sub-folders, like so: When you want to create a package, it currently presents itself has individual files, which is a problem when you have say 15 sub-folders with a total of 75 files. It would be ideal if there was the possibility...

    Currently if you batch delete a lot of segments from your TM the physical size won't change at all. This is because we don't run the " vacuum " feature when carrying our maintenance tasks on an SDLTM. I think it would be a good idea if we added this to...

    Trados 2007 used to have the ability to convert units as well as localize them. So go from inches to centimetres for example, or GBP to Euros. This feature was actually removed because of a lot of adverse feedback from users where rounding errors and...
