A first look at the Translation Memory view in
Trados Studio
The Translation Memories view contains the following components:
1. Ribbon tabs and groups containing maintenance tools.
2. Navigation pane, where you can see the file-based and server-based translation
memories that are currently open and navigate between them. You can also see
language resource templates.
Search Details window, where you create and apply filters to your translation memories.
‘TM side-by-side editor window, where you perform maintenance on your translation

unit

You can create both file-based (local) and server-based translation memories in the

‘® You can also base the new translation memory on an existing translation memory
by clicking the Browse button next to the Create From box. This can be useful
when you want to copy the setup form the other translation memory (for example,
custom fields and segmentation rules).
The Fields page is displayed. This page is used to create custom fields and values.
These allow you to further describe the translation units (TU) that are stored in your

unit is associated with:
© Place your cursor in the Name column and type Project.
© Hover over the Type field and an arrow is displayed. Click the arrow to display the
drop-down list and select List. This allows you to specify more than one project to
which a translation unit can be associated.
You can also create Text, Text (Multiple), Date/Time, List (Multiple) and Number
fields.
5. Click Next.
The Language Resources page is displayed. This is where you can create or modify lists
of language resources. These lists are used in conjunction with the segmentation rules in
translation memory processing to identify and localize untranslatable content. The
default language resource settings are automatically applied.
The Settings section on the Language Resources page dictate how Trados Studio
identifies and localizes elements that do not change during translation.3) Working with Translation Memories locally

Importing data into a translation memory
Import translation units and their associated data into a translation memory. The translation
units are always imported but the associated data that is imported varies depending on
the file type from which it was extracted. Trados Studio offers out-of-the box support for
importing TM data in TMX and SDLXLIFF in .SDLALIGN files. To import TM data from ITD, TTX
and BilingualWorkbench files, first install the Trados Legacy Compatibility Pack app.Working with Translation Memories locally | 3)

aligning the source with the target file of an existing translation
When you import + .sd1gn data, you can tell Trados Studio to triage only the translation
units that meet a certain quality value threshold. You can also add custom field values to the
imported translation units and specify other TM import options,
Additional imports support via add-on app
About this task
Install the Trados Compatibility and Migration Power Pack from the RWS AppStore to
add support for importing the following additional types of files:

These are legacy file types created SDLX, Trados 2007 and Translator'sWorkbench. Starting
with the 2021 release, Trados Studio supports these file types only via the Trados Legacy
‘Compatibility Pack app.
To install the Trados Compatibility and Migration Power Pack:
Procedure
1. Open the Add-ins tab Trados Studio and select RWS AppStore.
‘This opens the RWS AppStore on the Installed Plug-ins page.
2. Type Trados Compatibility and Migration Power Pack in the search box and press
Enter.

© Context information (bilingual files contain a sequence of translation units that is used
for creating context matches in the translation memory based on this sequence)
Note: If you are importing data from SDL Trados 2007 and SDLX 2007, itis often better to
import bilingual files instead of TMX files so that you can import the information needed to
create context matches. For detailed information on how to upgrade your SDL Trados 2007

Migrate local Translation Memories to
cloud
This section describes how to migrate local TMs to cloud and convert them to cloud TMs to
Use them in your translation engines. This allows you to share your TMs with your team in
cloud projects, for example. You can also merge multiple local TMs into cloud TMs during
the conversion wizard. This procedure covers the dedicated migration functionality in Studio,
You can also migrate/import data in the browser.
Before you begin
Before you begin, make sure that you are logged in to your cloud account from within
Studio,
‘About this task
To migrate your local TMs to cloud!
Procedure
1. Inthe Translation Memories view, click Migrate to Cloud > Migrate Local Translation
Memories to Cloud drop-down menu on the ribbon. This displays the conversion
wizard,
2. On the first page of the wizard, first add your desired local TMs to the conversion list.
You can either:
© Click Add File-based TMs to browse your local storage and choose a TM file.
© Click Add File-based TMs from Folder and select a folder containing multiple TM
files. This will add all of them to the conversion list
© Drag-and-drop your TM files to the list.
© Remove any of the added termbases by selecting them and clicking Remove Files.
3. Configure how the wizard will process the TMs you selected for conversion by choosing
one of the following options:
© Create a single cloud translation memory containing all file-based translation
memories - merges all the TMs in the conversion list into a single cloud TM.
© Create Create cloud translation memory for each language pair - creates cloud
‘TMs based on matching language pairs. This means that TMs that have the same
language pairs will get merged into a single cloud TM.

click New customer to create a new location in your cloud account.
Choose a Field Template for each cloud 7M. Field templates allow you to work
consistently across your TMs and create TMs that share the same fields faster. TM
fields hold descriptive data for each Translation Unit (TU) in a TM. You can also select
New Field Template to create a new one.
Select Language Processing Rules for your cloud TMs. Language processing rules
contain information about the following elements in a TM: compounds treated as

Importing translation memory content
You can import TM content from other TMs. In some scenarios you might want to simply
save a local TM to cloud but for this example we will go through the importing process.
Before you begin
Ensure that the TM content you want to import is stored in *mx, *.sdltm, *zip, *tmx.gz,
+ sdlxlif format.
© Ensure that the *.zip consists only of mex files,
* Ensure that each file you import has a maximum size of 1 G8, if you upload individual
files. If you upload a * zip archive, the individual files inside the archive can exceed 1 GB,
but the *ip archive must not exceed 1 GB.
About this task
Usage:
You can import TM content in a TM even if the TM is currently in use in a started project.
Process
‘TMs are applied on the source files of projects automatically during the Preprocessingstage
‘of a workflow, and more specifically during the Translation Memory Matching task. If the
project Is started and you imported content in a TM which that project uses:
© The newly updated TM is applied on the source files if the project has not reached the
Translation Memory Matching task yet.
* The newly updated TM is not applied on the source files if the project has already moved
beyond the Translation Memory Matching task. However, the newly imported content
will be returned during lookup or concordance search,
Restrictions:
Importing a *.tmx fle into a cloud TM- The *.tmxis imported correctly ifit has the same
source-target languages as the destination TM. If there are source-target language
mismatches, the import completes, but the mismatched language pairs are not imported
This, however does not apply to language families. For example, if you are importing a TMX
that has en-GB into a TM that has en-US, the import will succeed because it can recognize
language families.
Importing an * sdluliff file or an *.sdltm file into a cloud TM - The *.sdlxliff and the *.sdltm
files are imported correctly only if they have the same source-target languages as the TM,
Procedure

handled. From the Unknown Fields box, choose an option: Add to translation
