Hello
I have Trados Studio 2024 and we have just started using Schema ST4. I was able to import the filtetype settings for Schema ST4 and translate the first document, but now I need to import the ST4_language_xml settings file and I get this error message:
Quanos, the provider from ST4, says this is a Trados problem. So, can anyone please help?
Thanks a lot,
Christina
Your file type list already contains Schema ST4. Why do you want to import the settings again?

Hi Jerzy
Sorry, I wasn't accurate enough. The ST4_language_xml is a specific type of XML that has all the metadata and background information for a particular language. Its structure is different from the ST4 xml file, which is used for translating the actual document.
I was able to import the first file (ST4.sdlftsettings) and translate the document. But I need to import the second file (ST4_language_xml.sdlftsettings) to be able to translate the language-specific contents and metadata as well.
I have Trados Studio 2024 Professional - 18.0.1.2259.

I understand. Who has created the file type in question? It is based on old xml file type settings, which are no longer supported by Trados Studio. You might however try to create a new file type and import this FT settings in the 3rd step.

If you have been provided with an sdlftsettings file do you know what version of Trados Studio it was created for? Based on the error message it suggests it was created using the old XML format that is no longer available in the 2024 version. The old and new have run together for many versions so users have had plenty of opportunity to upgrade them... eventually they need to be upgraded and with the 2024 release that available time is gone.
So your options are these... probably:
