Hello,

I understand your concern about maintaining the formatting of tables of contents in Word documents when translating with Trados Studio 2021. Here are some steps you can follow to ensure the formatting remains consistent:

Step 1: Before you start translating, make sure to save the original Word document's styles. You can do this by opening the document, going to the "Styles" pane, and then saving the styles.

Step 2: When you're ready to translate, import the Word document into Trados Studio. Make sure to select the option to "Preserve source formatting" during the import process.

Step 3: After you've finished translating, generate the target translation. The formatting should remain the same as the original document.

Step 4: If the formatting is still off, you can apply the original styles that you saved earlier. Open the translated document in Word, go to the "Styles" pane, and then apply the saved styles.

Remember, Trados Studio aims to maintain as much of the original formatting as possible, but there may be some instances where manual adjustments are necessary, especially with complex elements like tables of contents.

Unfortunately, I don't have a specific resource on handling linked tables of contents within Trados Studio. However, you can find a wealth of information on the RWS AppStore and in the Trados Studio user guide, which covers a wide range of topics and includes tips for handling different types of content.

I hope this helps! If you have any other questions, feel free to ask.

Best regards,
