Procedure

  1. Open the appropriate asset in Browser Workbench.
  2. Next to the segment for which you want to highlight differences, select Translation memory matches The Translation memory matches button in Browser Workbench..
  3. In the new window, select the Highlight Differences for TM Entries check box.

Results

The differences between the TM entry and the source segment are highlighted under Source Entry as follows:
  • The words highlighted in gray are used in the TM entry, but are not used in the source segment.
  • The words highlighted in yellow are used in the source segment, but are not used in the TM entry.
