Untranslated parts

Hello, I have completed my translation in Trados 2017. Unfortunately not all pages (more than half) are translated in the target file. More than half of the project is still untranslated although in the editor everything is translated and confirmed. What could be the reason?

  • Hello @Ömer Daşbilek,

    Thank you for getting back to me and confirming the solution worked in the end.

    To close this thread and help others with similar situations I will briefly explain the problem/solution.

    Problem

    You are running Studio 2017 and after completing the translation and trying to export to target- everything was confirmed in the editor as translated and saved to the TM.

    However after saving 'target as'- the target was either not showing any translations or was only showing the source language.

    The original file was created in Word 2000-2003

    Solution

    Go to FILE OPTIONS FILE TYPES- and ensure the file type MS Word 2000-2003 was set as default (as this was the original file type) and was moved to the top of the Word format list.

    Then we created a new project adding BOTH the original Word and SDLXLIFF bilingual file - adding a new (emtpy) TM and populated this from the bilingual file.

    Once we reopened the file- we were able then to export the target file correctly.
