multilingual TMX file - how to import it into Trados TMs?

Cristina Farroni

Hello,

I have this tmx file that seems exported from Across. However, it has some peculiarities, i.e.:
1. it does not contain translation units only in a specific language pair (e.g. EN-DE) but in several. There are TUs for EN-ES, EN-NL etc.
2. some TUs have a source segment but no target segment
I attach a short part here.
I would like to create several TMs in Trados (one for each language pair) and then import from this multilingual tmx file only the TUs in the relevant language pair. Do you know any way?

Moved the code into a code block using the Insert -> Code menu.

    your post was treated as spam because you posted the TMX as text into the thread. Better to insert as code through the menu or attach the file as a zip.

    On your question… maybe this article will help?

    Now I'm back at my laptop I moved your code into a code block so you can see the difference, and I also created a working TMX from your example as that was full of problems so nobody would be able to test that.  Using this one:
