Selecting files for PerfectMatch
To apply PerfectMatch you need to pair the previously translated bilingual files with the new project files. You can select the following bilingual file types:
- Tradostag (TTX) files from SDL Trados 2007
- SDL Edit (ITD) files from SDLX 2007
- SDL XLIFF files from SDL Trados Studio
There are several different methods for pairing the previous files with the new project files. What method you use depends on if the files names in the new project match the previously translated bilingual file names.
Selecting files when you have matching file names
If the files in your new project have the same file names and path location within the project as the files in the previous project, you can select files using the following methods. This ensures that the bilingual files are automatically paired with the new project files.
- Base your project on a previous project
- Automatically search a folder for bilingual files
Selecting files when you have different file names
If the file names in your new project are different to the file names in the previous project, select the files using the following methods to pair the bilingual files with the new project files.
- Manually add previous bilingual files
- Add files using a bilingual map file
