Reducing costs of long-term translation projects such as the text of manuals, warning messages or compilation of documents has to be translated only once or twice and could be used many times.Ħ. Accelerating the whole translation process since translation memories “remember” previously translated material, translators need to translate it one time.ĥ. Translation memory is very useful and helpful when translating technical documents and documents consist of specialized vocabularies. So, at this case, we need to change the encoder of the document simply by using some XML editor like Notepad2 or Notepad++ This is mainly caused by the Document Encoder.īut Traods only recognize Unicode, a little bit of out date…(Tested in Trados 2007). When you try to import the converted TMX file into Trados translation memory, the following errors may occur: In the Output Section, Select TMX Memory under format, File Name you can write what you want, proper fill in the source and target language, then click OK, it will be export as a TMX memory!
