    Manage User Profile provides an Export but no Import. Although the import of a previously exported profile is possible via Change, it is not intuitive when a non-default location is specified.

    Hello, It would be nice to have a way to retain comments from the source file to the target file without the need to manually recreate the comments in the translation. In this case what I am looking for is a way to deal with source files that have...

    I know there are loads of possible columns for the Files View. Unfortunately the one column which would be really useful to me is not there (yet): one where I can jot down my own notes regarding a specific file. A specialised version of this idea would...

    In general, auto-save is fast and unobtrusive. For larger projects (I'm currently working on a file with 110,000 segments) however, the process can take a minute or longer. This is made even more frustrating when autosave starts when I'm three letters...

    I'm a translator from Myanmar. We can use Burmese in Trados but it doesn't support Karen (an ethnic language in Myanmar). It'll be a great help to Karen translators if we can add this language.

    It is currently already possible to rearrange the columns in the "Comments" window in the Studio Editor, and to display only certain kinds of comments (errors, warnings, info, source/target comments), but it is not possible to hide specific columns which...

    When you try to export a Studio TM to TMX, Trados, unlike other applications does not suggest a name or even gives the same name of the TM, and instead you have to type that yourself! Time is money, and this should be a very simply thing to do like...
