Display/Create project packages for multiple selected languages only

Hello,

I've got a project with 15 languages and I only want to create packages for 13 of them. Is there a way to do so (apart from doing it for each languages separately)?

I would just create the packages for all languages but Trados would not let me because I've already generated target files for the other two languages  and this leads to an error message (BTW, does anyone know why am I not allowed to do so anyway - or at least get a chance to display/deselect the corr. files ...?)

And also, is there a way to display / select all the files in a project (XLIFFS of all languages) so I can, for example, filter/sort for the files of specific languages (more than one apparantly) or sort all the files according to their status?

Thanks for your help!! :-)

  • Hello ,

    Yo can select which ever languages you want for the projects- here a quick example-

    Under language pairs- select your languages

    Trados Studio language pairs selection window showing various languages like German, English, and French with German-English pair selected.

    then the preferred batch tasks...

    Batch Processing window in Trados Studio with tasks like 'Copy to Target Languages' and 'Export Files' listed and 'Copy to Target Languages' selected.

    Finish window in Trados Studio displaying 'Copy to Target Languages' task as completed with no errors or warnings.

    Now start the package creation

    Trados Studio project view with options like 'Open', 'Create Project Package', and 'Package Project' on the toolbar and several projects listed below.

    Disable/enable the languages you need

    Create Project Package window in Trados Studio showing a list of files to be included in the package with options to 'Select All' or 'Deselect All'.

    Now select Create a package for every project language

    Review Project Packages window in Trados Studio with a completed package named 'GOPR6734_en-US' and options to 'Add', 'Remove', or 'Include Subfolders'.

    and assign as appropriate.

    Review Project Packages window in Trados Studio with a package named 'GOPR6734_en-US' selected and a due date set, showing a file named 'Witness Statement' included.

    Hope this helps.

  • Thank you, .

    Unfortunatly, I don't completely understand your procedure. The first two steps are general, aren't they? Or are you saying that I can start batch jobs for selected languages from the project settings?

    I already have created the project and have all the languages ready. What happens is that when I try to create the packages from the "projects" view (in order to create packages for all languages at once, as in your screen 4), I get an error message:

    Warning message in Trados Studio stating that one or more of the translatable files in the project have been finalized and cannot be added to the package.

    I thought that was because I already have created target files for 2 of the languages... So I wondered why I don't at least get the creation window with the remaining languages or to select the languages I want to create packages for. And then I wondered whether there is another way to create the package for multiple selected languages....

    I'm sorry, I don't know how to explain otherwise...
