Segmenting xliff files

Claudia Franco

I have to translate a large set of xliff files that are not being properly segmented. I have applied Paul Filkin's suggestion in this thread, ie. deleting the target elements' content using a text editor, and segmenting has improved a lot. However, I still would like to make Trados segment the content further when some specific tags appear in the source, eg. the <li> tag. Here's an example of a segment I'd like to segment further:

Screenshot of Trados Studio showing a segment with multiple sentences not properly segmented, including tags like 'li'. Purple and blue underlines indicate potential segmentation issues.

Is there any way this can be done?

Thanks in advance!

    You could copy all source to target in your xliff and then treat it as a simple xml file with html parser for embedded content.

    You need a new file type for xml then.
    Parser elements:
    //* not translatable
    //target always translatable, structure Paragraph
    root element xliff
    Set then html5 parser for all elements with structure CDATA and Paragraph.

    Or use the Multlingual XML file type.
