Retrofit does not include all changes

Hi!

I sometimes have the problem that when doing a retrofit from either bilingual reviews or reviewed target files it will only apply some of the changes I made to the review files. Trados simply ignores some changes! This is very frustrating and time-consuming. Are there any solutions for this or does anyone have any ideas why this might be happening?

Many thanks!

Dani

    Not sure exactly what you need from me. When I´m finished with translating a single file, I usually go to Batch Tasks - Generate Target File - Review the target file in Word and save - Update from Reviewed Target File (Retrofit). And that´s where the mistakes happen: Trados only updates a few changes and ignores others completely. On the other hand it shows mostly links as "changed" even though I made no changes to those. This keeps happening with almost every file.

    Does this help? What files would you need me to sent? An exemplary target file and respective SDL XLIFF file after retrofit? How can I get this to you? I don´t see an option here to attach files? Thanks Paul!
    Cheers, Dani
