Oh dear. Click-to-run versions seem to be all Microsoft are selling these days. Will have to take a look if I can find an MSI installer version. My copy of Office 2016 doesn't work well with Dragon anyway (if I dictate in any doc with a table while Dragon is on, my screen gets all jittery). This is a known issue with ALL new versions of Word and Dragon, I think starting from v. 12 to DPI. Nuance are aware of it but don't care. I think the latest version of Office that works OK is 2010.

I've given up on getting real-time previews, but the next best thing is View Target, which I use if I want to check something mid-translation.  If I've updated something and want to see a fresh target, simply clicking View Target again closes the open file and generates an updated target.

The real-time preview only works for Word, PowerPoint and HTML. It never worked for Excel.

You need to use the "normal" preview for this.

Thanks for the info. That's a shame. It works in memoQ. I suppose that's because memoQ's system is HTML-based. If it works, I think the Studio previewing system is better. Getting it to work though is another matter.

I am currently hunting for a MSI installer copy of Word, until SDL solve this problem otherwise.

Hi Michael,

Maybe this article will provide some clues... I'm no expert but it seems helpful:
