Hi Paola 

This article might be useful for you:

But on your specific question, perhaps you'd be better off using the Glossary Converter as this is very good at making the merging process easy:

I did try to do this using the process you went through and this produced exactly the same result as you... and I don't know why.  You do have to use the "Synchronize on Term" option when you process the import but this doesn't seem to work correctly.

I'll look at this with the support team, but in the meantime I think you have an easier solution with the Glossary Converter anyway.

Regards

Paul

Dear Paul Filkin (pfilkin),

thank you for your answer. I was able to do what I wanted with the Glossary Converter. For the record, it didn't work properly when selecting as input files the Wordfast glossaries (*.txt) directly, but it worked fine when I selected as input files the exported WF glossaries (*.tbx).

Now I am filling in missing terms in MultiTerm (some terms were only in Spanish or Italian, and I'd like that each term to have its equivalent in both languages) but I get a javascript error on merging. I have recorded a video, but since it shows sensitive info I'd rather not share it publicly. Is there anybody/anywhere I can send it to?

To be more precise, the error arises when I try to edit a term (for example, if I entered the term capitalized and then want to edit it so that it reads in lower case. MultiTerm asks if I want to duplicate or merge the term. I clic Merge and nothing happens. I clic again on Merge and I get a *.js error. Then Multiterm stops displaying correctly and I have to restart it. It's  annoying!

This is to be expected because the WF txt format is specific to WF and is nothing the GC could know about.

Try using the Flags layout instead of the default layout.
