Greetings,
I finished the translation task in SDL Trados Studio (EN-Ar) language pair
and save a lot of terms in my old termbase
how can I extract the only terms included in this task from this termbase and export them to Excel file
I don't want the painful manual extraction.
I need a tool or plugin to extract terms from sdlxlif based on sdltb termbase
Regards
I'm not aware of a tool that will do this. Might be worth looking at XBench... I don't know if it will do what you need, but it seems worth a look.
Sometimes it's a better idea to add terms as you work to a project termbase and add these into your main termbase later on. This has a few advantages, not least these:

Also, a suggestion from our product manager. If you have only been working on this one project for a while then perhaps you can filter for new entries in MultiTerm created by you in a certain timeframe (timeframe of the project) and export from there – perhaps to XML then use the Glossary Converter to go to Excel?

Thank you, Paul
I found this
https://community.sdl.com/product-groups/translationproductivity/f/autohotkey/27744/to-extract-tb
I will try it
also, I suggest creating a tool for this task.
I tried SDL Multiterm Extractor
But I did not find the option for sdlxlif files
That tool doesn't do anything more than you can already do with MultiTerm. It doesn't do what you wanted which is to create a termbase based on what's found in the sdlxliff files you worked on and your termbase.

MultiTerm Extract is pretty old and has not been updated for modern file formats. It's still pretty useful, especially when working with bilingual files, but the trick is to save your files in something it can understand. A good way to do this from an SDLXLIFF is to use the Legacy Converter and convert to TTX, or even bilingual DOC. That works quite well in Multiterm Extract.

I Exported SDLXLIFF to Bilingual word review docx
then saved as .doc
then
creat a project in MultitermExtractor (bilingual)
and assigned the termbase
but the results are in Asian characters
and Zero/empty Arabic terms
Why would you expect that to work? Essentially you have simply created a monolingual file for MultiTerm Extract. The legacy converter creates a proper BilingualDOC that will be supported. This is an old format that used to be used by the old Trados and is still used by Wordfast Classic.

Why SDL Multiterm Extractor Does not support SDLXliff ?
or
embedding this feature in sdl trados studio or multiterm!
I found this plugin
https://appstore.sdl.com/language/app/rys-translation-workflow-automation-package-2018/822/
I will try it.
Term Extraction: The app can extract terms from project files either based on statistics, against existing termbases, or based on the art-of-the-state text analytics services that can assure you of amazingly high accuracy, making the module probably the best one among other similar products.
this plugin - has all the features
