Font mapping

Font mapping settings specify the fonts which SDL Trados Studio uses in the target file to replace the fonts used in the source file.

By default, most target languages have only one font, and for that language all source fonts are mapped to one font. For example, if the target language is Chinese (Taiwan), you might want to specify that PMingLiu font is used for all text in the target document, whatever fonts are used in the source document. If so, specify that for Chinese (Taiwan), all source language fonts are mapped to PMingLiu.
