I need to create samples of my work as Microsoft Word documents, which means I need to turn the .sdlxliff source files I get from customers into .docx files. Is there a way to do this? My version of Trados is 2015.

Hi Laura Beach
Unknown said:Are you saying there is a way to save the source .sdlxliff file as a .docx file? If so, how do I do that?
Just open it in Studio using the single file translation command where you can select a file and open it for translation immediately without going through the project wizard. Then when it's open in the editor just press Shift+F12, (or File -> Save target as). That will save the target file in it's native format.
But note what I said earlier. If the original file was not embedded into the SDLXLIFF you won't be able to do this without the original source file too, so it just depends how the SDLXLIFF was prepared. In my experience you can do this with most SDLXLIFF files.

I know this question is now old, but I stumbled across it while looking for a solution, so here goes ...
This method works well if you have more than one file, and exporting them one by one could get tedious:
consider this one or this style
not a bad idea
