Click File > Open > Translate Single Document. The Open Document dialog box is displayed.
Select the document to be translated and click Open.
If this is the first time you have opened this document, the Open Document dialog box is displayed. Go to step 3.
If the Select Project File dialog box is displayed, the file you are opening is already part of an existing project. Select Open existing project file to open the partially translated file and click OK. The file is opened in the Editor window for translating.
In the Open Document dialog box, select the Source Language and Target Language from the drop-down lists.
If you want to use a translation memory during translation, select the translation memory to use in the Translation Memory and Automated Translation section. In Starter, you can only use one translation memory at a time, the translation memory can only be file-based and the size of the translation memory is limited based on the type of license you purchased.
If you want to use a translation memory stored locally in a file, click Add and select File-based Translation Memory from the drop-down list.
If you want to create a new file-based translation memory, click Create and select New File-based Translation Memory from the drop-down list.

Click OK. The translatable content of the source language document is identified, segmented and placed in an *.sdlxliff file. The file is opened in the Editor window for translating.
A project is automatically created for you. Use the Project Settings dialog box to change the translation memory and termbase selections and to specify other settings.
