Downloading translation memories
You will only be able to download translation memories (TMs) if your system has been set up to export TM data to ZIP files for downloading.
About this task
Translation memories can be downloaded from the Download Files screen and also from the Exported TMs screen. To display the Exported TMs screen, click the Download TMs button in your Inbox. When downloading translation memories from either the Download Files screen or the Exported TMs screen:
- Make sure that you select the correct language pair. Each translation memory download file is language specific. The language pair appears as part of the file name.
- Make sure that you select the correct file type for downloading: SDLTM or MDB or TMX. SDLTM files are used in SDL Trados Studio, TMX files may be used in SDLX and SDL Trados, MDB is a Microsoft Access file for use in SDLX.
Use the Search box to restrict the display to relevant TMs. For example, enter en-us .tmx to restrict the display to those TMs that have both en-us and .tmx as part of their name.
This procedure describes how to download translation memory data from either the Download Files screen or the Exported TMs screen.
