TM Handling
There are four main types of actions to do with TMs:
o Create a new Studio TM from scratch.
o Export/import Studio TM data

o Import old (legacy) TMs (in different formats than

Studio) into an existing, Studio format TM
o Upgrade an old TM (a TM in a different format
than Studio) and maintain TMs (i.e. edit settings,
etc.)
Translating a single file which is
not a part of an existing project
As already stated, if the job consists of only one source

file, you don’t have to start by creating a project for it –

that will be done automatically in the process.

(When should you start a single document job by creating

a new project, instead of just opening the source file? )

translation on being confirmed is propagated

you can disable or customize this function.

Filtering segments
 Filtering segments is a very useful function
which you can use to view e.g. only
untranslated segments, non-confirmed
segments, segments which contain a specific
expression, segments which start with a
specific word, etc. The result is a list of those
segments that satisfy the filter attribute.
