Number recognition

Gill Barringer

I am new to Trados and have just practising what I have learnt in the Webinar I participated in last week. Please excuse any questions that may appear 'silly' to an experienced user.  I am at that stage when I am getting to grips with some of the concepts of a CAT tool.

I am having a few problems getting my Trados (Studio 2017) to behave in the same way as it was shown in the Webinar. I understand it handles number recognition well and underlines the number in blue which means you can "CTL ," to transfer a number over in to the TT in the format of the TT country. However, numbers in the files I have imported into Trados are not underlined in blue in editor mode and  so "CTL ," does nothing whatsoever. I have checked Fields and setting and numbers box is ticked (along with variables, times dates etc.) and so I cannot understand why it doesn't recognise numbers thus not allowing me access to the facilities available with that tool. I appreciate that with my very limited knowledge of Trados, I may be missing something very fundamental here.  Is there anybody who can help?

Also (changing the subject), just to check my understanding: you can only switch on 'autosuggest dictionaries' and 'UpLIFT' when you sufficient TU's in your memory but not before? 

Thank you for your help.

Kind regards,

Gill.

    Hi  

    Have you got an active TM in your project?  If you have no active TM you won't get number recognition.

    You can use AutoSuggest Dictionaries whenever you like, but you can only generate one when you have sufficient TUs in your TM.  For UpLift you also need sufficient TUs in your TM before you can take advantage of this feature.
