Non-breaking hyphens in Trados Studio 2021

Nicolas Gouyette

Dear community members,

I'm trying to resolve an issue related to non-breaking hyphens in Trados Studio. Please note I'm using Trados Studio 2021 SR2 - 16.2.12.9338 on Windows 10/11.

While I can insert non-breaking hyphens in Studio Editor (e.g. in 2022-2023 or 19-22 février 2024), which display correctly in docx target files, it does not show up correctly in Studio Translation Memories.

Whenever a stored unit comes up in concordance searches (and when applying matches in target segments), it displays as "20222023" or "1922 février 2024" in Studio.

Any idea or suggestion to make sure non-breaking hyphens are stored correctly in TM and show up as such in Studio?

Thanks your help

    Hello,

    I understand your concern about non-breaking hyphens not displaying correctly in Trados Studio Translation Memories. Here are some steps you can follow to resolve this issue:

    Step 1: Open Trados Studio and go to the "File" menu.

    Step 2: Select "Options" from the drop-down menu.

    Step 3: In the Options window, navigate to the "Editor" section.

    Step 4: Under the "Editor" section, select "Auto-substitution".

    Step 5: In the Auto-substitution settings, ensure that the "Hyphen to non-breaking hyphen" option is checked.

    Step 6: Click "OK" to save the changes.

    This should ensure that non-breaking hyphens are stored correctly in your Translation Memories and display as such in Trados Studio. If the issue persists, it might be due to the specific formatting of the source document. In such cases, you might need to manually adjust the hyphenation in the source document before importing it into Trados Studio.

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

    Best regards,
