Please HELP with automatic opening of Termbase in SDL Trados Studio 2015, Auto-Suggest Dictionary and saving server-based TM to a USB as a File-based TM

I have a few questions. How can I set my termbase to open automatically in SDL TRADOS Studio 2015 whenever we open a new document to translate. I need the exact steps! I've researched and tried everything but when I try to follow the steps given, I can find the "Tools > Options" buttons. Also, what are the exact steps for saving a Server-based TM to a USB as I File-based TM that I can then use to create an Auto-Suggest Dictionary? And once created, what are the steps for setting the Auto-Suggest Dictionary to open automatically whenever a new document/project is opened?

  • When you use the "Translate single document function" (however, I would strongly recommend using only the Project feature in Studio, as it makes it MUCH easier to keep your TMs and TBs tidy), use the "Advanced" button you find at the bottom of the window (see screenshot). When you configure your TM and TB settings there, these will be kept between sessions for the language pair. When you change the language pair, the settings will be then kept for this language pair. Alternatively you can use File -> Options -> Language Pairs to configure Language Pairs, used in this method.

    Nonetheless, please check out the Create New Project method, as you can create project templates then, containing ALL settings you wish.
