    There is a significant demand for translating dwg files exported by AUTO CAD, but Trados cannot directly handle these files yet. It is hoped that it can directly translate dwg format files in bulk, and the exported translations should also be in a dwg...

    We frequently translate software strings where you need straight quotes and then change to other kinds of text where smart quotes are needed, requiring to toggle the "Replace straight quotes with smart quotes" nearly every time we move over to another...

    The only project analysis across all project languages is the Analysis Statistics in the Project View. To evaluate the matches further and calculate costs of the whole project an export function to Excel would be great. The Reports View only offers...

    KO is commonly requested for localization as one of the four main APAC languages (CCJK). The default languages displayed under the font adaptation options on a filetype should include Korean, using Malgun Gothic mapped to all source fonts? So these should...
