Trados and memoQ packages

Open a package

1. New projectChoose New project and drop the package into the window.
2. Check the detailsLexora reads the languages and the files to translate from the package. If the package has several target languages, pick yours; the others need a project of their own.
3. Create projectEach bilingual file in the package becomes a document in the project.

Translate

Work as with any project. Tags in bilingual files can be placeholders, so Lexora never places them by guess: the checks tell you when a tag is missing.

A memoQ handoff package can also carry memories and term bases. Lexora tells you which; to use them, unzip the package and import them into a memory or glossary.

Send the return package

1. CheckChoose Run QA and clear the errors. A missing tag stops the export, and the notice takes you to the segment.
2. ExportChoose Export, then All documents and Translated documents. For a package job this is the Return package for Trados or memoQ.
3. Send itSend the file to the agency as usual. It opens in their tool as the finished job.

The Delivery desk can add a TMX of your work and a bilingual XLIFF. See Export and delivery.

When the agency sends a new version

Choose Update source document (the arrows button in the editor’s toolbar) and pick the new file. Lexora shows what changed before anything is replaced, and reuses your translations where the source is the same. The previous version is kept, so you can go back in one step.
