Hi! Does anyone know how to get the text in these - I think they are called graphic objects - translated? I found some instructions with changing the file name to zip and fish the files out for translations from the path \word\embeddings, but there I only find bin files, no word or excel...
Thnx in adance.

I see this in your word file:
If I open this with default settings I get this:
What are you expecting to see?

Hi Paul,
sorry, my mistake. The text extracted in Trados is from the "external" text fields around. I have deleted those ones now.
Can you please have a look once again?
Thnx
Burim
Hi Burim,
Trados doesn't support extracting embedded objects out of the box.
However, for the sample files you show, you can just double-click the image and the embedded Word File will appear in a separate window.
After double-clicking and opening it up in a separate window, just hit "Save As" to save it as a separate Word file and then you can read that file into Trados. When you are finished with translation, you can just drag and drop the translated version back into the original file.
It takes a little bit of work, but its better than hand typing.
Also, you may want to look into the following app which automates the process:

* It's a paid app and I've never tried it myself, so I'm not sure how useful it is.
