Use the TMX Import Options page of the Import wizard to filter unwanted translation units out of the import and to specify how you want unknown fields to be handled. This page is only displayed if you have selected a translation memory (TMX ) file to import. To display this page, click Next on the Import Files page of the Import wizard.

Description |
Filter |
You can filter unwanted translation units (TU) out of the import. Click Edit to display the Filter dialog box where you create a filter to exclude the unwanted TUs. Only translation units that match the filter are imported. |
Use these options to specify how you want the import to handle fields that exist in the translation unit being imported, but not in the translation memory you are importing to.

Please select the scenario that applies best to you: This is where you specify what data associated with the translation unit is removed or retained in order to optimize the leverage from the imported data. Data created from other translation memory engines might have applied and stored data associated with a translation unit differently to SDL Trados Studio. Therefore, in order for data imported into the current translation memory to work correctly in SDL Trados Studio, you can eliminate some differences between the translation units imported into this translation memory with the current translation units. |

The imported data will be primarily used with new, native source files or files processed only with SDL Trados Studio |
Imports a version of the TMX file that has had some formatting-related data removed. You might want to do this, for example, if you are a translator and you receive files in their original (native) format with a legacy TMX file. In this case, removing the formatting-related data associated with the translation unit will increase the leverage. |
The imported data will be primarily used with presegmented legacy SDL Trados ITD files and TTX files |
Imports a version of the TMX file that retains the legacy translation unit data. You might want to do this, for example, if you are a translator and you receive a pre-segmented legacy bilingual file with a legacy TMX file. In this case, retaining the data associated with the translation unit will increase leverage. |
The imported data will be primarily used in mixed scenarios |
Imports two versions of the translation unit, one where the data associated with the translation unit will be removed and another one where it retains the data. You might want to do this if you want to permanently upgrade the TMX file to the new translation memory format, you are using legacy bilingual files and using bilingual files from SDL Trados Studio. Selecting this option will maximize the translation memory leverage in all situations. |
