Updated Review Translation not showing on the Empty target segment

The imported target segment are not showing into the SDL file

    the bilingual review file is not meant for that. If the target segment was empty, nothing will be imported. It is possible to either fill empty segments with MT results or copy source to target, but be warned that the bilingual review functionality is not very stable and only meant for minor corrections, not for outside-of-Studio-translations.

    If you want somebody to translate a document who does not use Studio, maybe exporting as Excel file is better, then do an alignment, then pre-translate or PerfectMatch your document using the alignment results? (I never tried this, but I think it will work.)

    Wordfast Anywhere, a free online CAT tool, imports SDLXLIFF files, so I would assume it also returns them. How badly mangled they are afterwards I don't know, but this might be another route you could try.
