Hi,
the current version of .tmx exported from Studio features "xml" as datatype, even though it was "rtf" just a few months ago.
It seems this is causing compatibility issues with OmegaT, which cannot read the TM properly - as it uses "datatype = plain text".
Is there any way this can be edited or a plugin to properly convert the tmx as needed?
Thanks!
Maybe use this option when you export:
As far as I can see Studio always uses xml as default unless you use the old Trados 2007 option.
Having said that I think OmegaT has a problem if it cannot read a perfectly valid TMX. The last specification for TMX says this:
Text. The recommended values for the datatype attribute are as follow (this list is not exhaustive):
- "unknown" = undefined (default)
- "alptext" = WinJoust data.
- "cdf" = Channel Definition Format.
- "cmx" = Corel CMX Format.
- "cpp" = C and C++ style text.
- "hptag" = HP-Tag.
- "html" = HTML, DHTML, etc.
- "interleaf" = Interleaf documents.
- "ipf" = IPF/BookMaster.
- "java" = Java, source and property files.
- "javascript" = JavaScript, ECMAScript scripts.
- "lisp" = Lisp.
- "mif" = Framemaker MIF, MML, etc.
- "opentag" = OpenTag data.
- "pascal" = Pascal, Delphi style text.
- "plaintext" = Plain text.
- "pm" = PageMaker.
- "rtf" = Rich Text Format.
- "sgml" = SGML.
- "stf-f" = S-Tagger for FrameMaker.
- "stf-i" = S-Tagger for Interleaf.
- "transit" = Transit data.
- "vbscript" = Visual Basic scripts.
- "winres" = Windows resources from RC, DLL, EXE.
- "xml" = XML.
- "xptag" = Quark XPressTag.
