Bookmarking your work…

~ paulfilkin ~ 8 Comments

01Studio 2014, whilst containing many significant user enhancements, also brought with it some significant additions to the technology platform available to developers.

These enhancements provide a developer with the ability to extend or customise the user interface… so change the way Studio looks and is used… and it also allows a developer to create custom functionalities that they can add into the interface as if they were part of the application itself.  Actually once added they are indeed part of the application!

What can you do with the SDLXLIFF Converter?

~ paulfilkin ~ 13 Comments

Whilst SDL Trados Studio 2011 SP2 incorporates the ability to export and import Word documents for review the application originally developed is still available and working (in fact SP2 has an updated version).  @jaynefox wrote a very nice blog post about how to use the SDLXLIFF Converter for Microsoft Office that is available for Studio 2009 through the SDL OpenExchange and is installed with Studio 2011 in the program group.  So I thought it would be interesting just to note what the different options are for this application.
