Having problems creating XML file type in WorldServer 11.7.3 from Trados Studio 2022

/cfs-file/__key/communityserver-discussions-components-files/247/TestXML-_2D00_-Copy.txt

Hello!

I recently got a new laptop and installed Trados Studio 2022. I needed to create a new XML file type for WorldServer 11.7.3.328. Trados Studio only offers the following file types for creation:

Until now in Trados Studio 2021, we had always used the XML Embedded Content file type, but this is no longer available. So I chose XML 2 and created my file type. However, it could not be imported into WorldServer.

So I created a test file type and the rest of this post deals with that and shows what's happening.

(created as stated with the XML 2 file type)

Exported to .sdlftsettings file (attached to this post).

Tried to import into WorldServer:

So I checked the sdlftsettings file:

Then I take a closer look at the XML 2 file types allowed by WorldServer:

The only one that seems relevant to my situation would be XML 2: Any XML, but I am not able to change its setting or create a copy of it in Studio:

So my question is this:

How am I supposed to create an XML file filter in Trados Studio 2022 and successfully import it into WorldServer?



Converted TXT file to link (it needs to be renamed to .sldftsettings. Also added additional clarity.

  • Unfortunately, I still cannot get this to work. I've created a filetype filter for XML 2 that works perfectly in Trados Studio 2022:

    Screenshot of Trados Studio showing a list of items with bullet points, including 'Linear and non-linear axis coupling - ENG', 'Software used: Automation Studio version 4.12', and 'Single-axis movement with mapp Motion'. No visible errors or warnings.

    (For information, I followed the information provided by Paul Filkin here:  Are there differences in XML 2 parser rules? )

    When I try to follow the steps in the article you provided, I am able to import the file type (although "Copy of XML v 2.0.0.0_2" specified on the help page was simply "Copy of XML v 2.0.0.0" for me, probably doesn't matter). The file type is applied to the file during project creation in WorldServer as I would expect; however, no segments at all are displayed (0 words to translate). I do not understand why it works fine in Trados Studio 2022 but not our version of WorldServer 11.7.3. Unfortunately, very frustrated... Disappointed
