How to import the amended version of a target file back into a Studio project?

Dear RWS Community members,

I am facing some technical issue with Studio 2021 SR2 - 16.2.10.9305, and I hope that you will be able to help me fix it.

Here is the context: some months ago, I translated a Word file for a customer. The source was about 10,000 words. Now, the customer is asking me to translate/implement changes made in the source into the target – so far, so good.

There is a snag, though: the customer modified many sentences in the Word target file that I delivered, and so, as a result, I cannot implement the changes directly into the project that I created some months ago, since the target version of the text is 'out-of-date'. Since this text is long, it would take many extra hours to update the target version with these modifications! My question is the following: is it possible to automatically import the target (Word) file that my customer edited back into my Studio project with a few clicks?

I think functions like Retrofit can automate this process, and I watched tutorials and read threads to try and understand how to proceed, but I did not figure out how to do it properly so far :/

Do you have any insights?

Thank you in advance for your help!

Best wishes,

Nicolas M
