There was Transit XV (2001-2008) and now we have Transit NXT (2008-now). [/quote]
It's the version the agency sent me. It might be worth asking them whether it's worth investing in a newer version.
Although judging by your comments, it might be a good idea to buy my own updated software, even if I stop working for the agency. You give me the impression that Transit really can make life easier.
I suppose it's like learning to drive with a 25-year-old car ;) [/quote]
I'm astonished that an agency distributes software that is no longer available from official sources for more than 10 years and forces their translators to work with it...
If you do not want to learn how translators worked in earlier days, you should switch to an up-to-date version of Transit and benefit from the enhancements of the recent 15 years...
