The File Menu

Save Target As

Select this to generate a translated file from the target segments in the active document. This option is only available if you have a document open in the Editor view.

This saves the target language segments to a document of the same type as the source language document. You specify where you want the file to be saved.

You can choose the encoding to be applied to the saved document. The selected encoding settings become the default encoding for subsequent Save Target As operations for the file.

Translate Single Document

Select this to quickly open a single document and start a new translation. Starting a translation using this method bypasses all of the settings you select when you start a new translation with the New Project wizard, for example, selecting processing setting for pre-translation. These settings can be specified after the file is opened.

The Translate Single Document command can also be used to open an existing translation file, an *.sdlxliff file.

Legacy DTP Formats

Prepare FrameMaker 7 Files

Click this to open SDL Trados S-Tagger for FrameMaker. This application facilitates the translation of FrameMaker files. It allows you to convert FrameMaker and FrameMaker+SGML files that have been saved as MIF to a tagged text format, STF. STF files contain only the text for translation along with brief descriptive tags which represent essential formatting information. Files can then be converted to TradosTag format (Trados 2007), which can be translated in Studio.

For more information, see the help installed with S-Tagger for FrameMaker.

Prepare QuickSilver Files

Click this to open SDL Trados S-Tagger for Interleaf. This application converts Interleaf files that have been saved as IASCII to a tagged text format, STF, where only the text for translation along with brief descriptive tags which represent essential formatting information is presented to the translator. Files can then be converted to TradosTag format (Trados 2007), which can be translated in Studio.

For more information, see the help installed with S-Tagger for QuickSilver.
