automatic formatting of telephone numbers

Hello!

In the source text I'm working on the following pattern is used for the telephone numbers: "0ddd.dddddd" (where "d" is a digit). In the target I want the country code to be added and the format to be changed according to this pattern: "+39 (0)ddd-dddddd". Is there any way to make Studio do the job automatically?

I will appreciate your advices!

  • The best way to tackle this is using the regex autosuggest provider from the appstore.  Should be straight forward enough... although it will be only useful when working interactively.

    The alternative is to let Studio do it's thing and then search/replace the entire file in one go afterwards.  I'd be inclined to use this method as it means you can pre-translate and not worry about it.  For example... I have this:

    Trados Studio interface showing a list of files with status columns indicating 'In Progress' and 'Not Started'.

    I'd use the SDLXLIFF Toolkit on the appstore for this because I just discovered that Studio 2021 has a bug that will prevent you from doing this easily in one go:

    Trados Studio search and replace function with regex option selected and results showing number of matches.

    Advantage of the toolkit is you can do the entire project in one go at the end.
