Exporting AutoText entries

This topic describes how AutoText entries can be exported to an *.autotxt file. Exporting the entries allows you to share the list with someone else who is using the AutoSuggest feature in SDL Trados Studio. They can import the file into their Studio version.

About this task

To export AutoText entries:

Procedure

  1. Select File > Options.
  2. Select AutoSuggest > AutoText from the navigation tree.
  3. Select the language whose AutoText entries you want to export from the Target Language drop-down list. This is the target language you are translating into.
  4. Click Export.
  5. Browse to the location where you want to save the exported *.autotxt file.
  6. Enter a name for the new *.autotxt file in the File name box and click Save.
    The new *.autotxt file is now created and can be sent to other users of Studio to import for use with AutoSuggest.
