Review Mode in Trados Studio 2024

- Is it possible to export comments into the target file (JSON)? When I export the target file it looks like a document in which all tracked changes were already accepted and I can't see the comments.

- Is it possible to view the number of changes tracked?

    The answer to your first question is no, not out of the box. (You might be able to code your own file type for JSON that has this ability, using the SDK, but that would require some effort.)

    The answer to your second question is that the editor interface does not offer this information. But since the file is a normal XML file stored on your drive, you could write a little script that counts the occurrence of "sdl:revid=" triggered by the file being modified. (You could even use Notepad++ or EditPad Pro for that.) That's the number of changes tracked. Nota bene that replacing a word is two changes: deleting the old word, adding the new one.

    This might give you an idea:

    Number of changes is quite arbitrary since I can make many small changes or one big change to achieve the same.
