Hello Stephanie,

In order to overcome this issue and to be able to save the save as word 2000 or older, you can install Openoffice\LibreOffice and open the Word file with it and save it as Word 97-2000.

Best regards

Dear members,

I have a problem with import of word files in Transit XV. My Transit version allows Import of 95/97/2000 Word files. On my PC I have installed a new Word version which does not support saving files to an older Word version than 2003. So, the import of new Word files doesn't work.

How about saving as RTF and import that? Though I've seen shifts in formatting due to the RTF roundtrip (with older Word versions).

Grepping seems to work. However, one of my .ENG files failed to load. It seems to have been the angle bracket as I replaced a Japanese angle bracket with a Latin one and that may have messed up the tags in the XML. However, disabling that replacement fixed that particular problem. Other than that, so far so good.

This has been a public service announcement.

Thank you very much for your answers.

I will try the Word installation. Yes, RTF works, but styles and formatting of the customer document would be lost partially. So, RTF only works for "simple" files.

Low icon resolution after updating Transit NXT

I have just re-installed Transit NXT SP9 (without changing any of the settings) and noticed that the icon resolution has become very low. The edges of the icons are really jagged, and that looks rather ugly.

Transit still works fine, this is just an annoyance, but I would very much like to fix it.

Does anybody know why this was caused or how to resolve it?

Thanks!

As already said, Transit works fine, but icons are really of a low-res compared to the perfect appearance in SP8 (and before). I have also re-booted several times since installing SP9, to no use. Also, some of my settings have been modified, nothing really important and that I can't re-set, but there has to be something new to adjust (I presume, no time so far to check all tabs and setting anew). An annoyance, not more than that.

Hi,

I had the same problem for about half a year, it was really annoying. After installing the Windows 10 anniversary update, the problem was gone, and the icons were hi-res again.

I even contacted STAR. But they said they knew the problem but there was no simple explanation and asked for further computer details and a screen shot. Which I did not send because by then, the problem had solved itself.

It might be best to try and contact STAR.

Is it possible to export a Transit TM as .tmx for import in Trados Studio?

First of all, I apologize if this issue has been dealt with before - I searched the forum but was not able to find an answer.

A new direct customer of mine is using Transit Nxt Professional Version 4.4 SP 9 (Build 1631.6). They would like me to work with their existing TM, but since I do not use Transit we need to find out how to export their TM in a format that I can import into my TM in Trados Studio. They have managed to create a .tmx file which does have a lot of content (I have tried to open it with Notepad+), but when trying to import it in Studio the import result is 0.

It seems quite unlikely that there is no way to solve this problem, but unfortunately my customer only knows the basics and I do not know Transit at all. Does anybody know how export a TM (step by step, please) or how to prepare the .tmx file (if this has already been correctly exported) for import in Studio?

Thank you very much in advance!

Probably you need to change a line or two at the beginning of the tmx-file. I would try to choose a TM of the same language pair in Studio, export it to tmx and open it in Notepad. Then you compare the first part of the file to the one from Transit. You could copy the first lines from the Studio tmx into the Transit tmx and try to load it into Studio.
Hope it works.

Hi Susanne,

you can find a detailed description on the TMX export from Transit in the "Transit / TermStar – Referenzhandbuch".
You can download it (German and English) from the STAR Website:
[url removed]

According to the description, maybe it's just the wrong coding (UTF8 vs. UTF16).

Regards,

O.N.

Post title: Thanks a lot, but it still doesn't work ...

The first lines of my own tmx file are:

[?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?]
[tmx version="1.4"]
(followed by [header creationtool="SDL Language Platform" creationtoolversion="8.0" etc.)

The first lines of the customer's tmx file are:

[?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?]
[!DOCTYPE tmx SYSTEM "tmx14.dtd"]
[!-- Transit TMX document --]
[tmx version="1.4"]
(followed by [header
creationtool="Transit NXT"
creationtoolversion="4.0" etc.)

When replacing the first four lines with my first two lines, the import result is still 0. What am I doing wrong?

Edited: Code brackets replaced by [ and ]

I just wonder if anything is wrong with the TMX as Transit's TMX export is usually no "rocket science"...
Some more ideas you may check:
- Can you find/identify and "real" content in the TMX? E.g. some segments with source and target language?
- Does the TMX contain the language(s) that you need/require in SDL?

Post title: My pennyworth

I've had problems in the past importing TMX files into SDL Trados Studio (2011, 2015).
After much searching, I found out that Transit exports empty source/target segments, which apparently Studio doesn't like.
Empty target segments are quite common and often necessary to respect English word order (e.g. phrases in InDesign/Powerpoint split across several segments due to (IMHO) unnecessary line breaks in textboxes).
STAR told me there's no way to exclude them in Transit.
They recommended Olifant (open-source >TMX editor).
Another "home-made" solution would be to write a routine that simply deletes segments with empty source and/or target.
I'm working on this (a VB6 standalone executable), but it's very much "work in progress".

Actually, I found a similar reference a couple of days ago, but according to my customer they would need an "extra licence" (an add-on, I suppose) in order to have access to the TM container. Do you know if this can actually be the case? To me it seems absurd that a system would not allow you to export your TMs, but then again I do not know Transit.

Apart from that, it seems that the customer used UTF8, which is the format that is also used when I export a TM from Studio, so this seems to be right ...

I really don't think it's an encoding problem, as Transit gives you the choice (UTF-8 or UTF-16, the former is selected by default).
As I said below, it's more likely to be TUs that have an empty source or target segment.

Apart from your home-made solution which is still in progress, did you find a solution using Olifant (open-source >TMX editor)? And if so, what precisely did you do?
