Filter
WorldServer, SDL Project Server, Studio: A program that extracts translatable content from a particular file format, segments the extracted content and uses the segments to produce a translatable item in a form such as an *.sdlxliff file. The translatable item can be presented to a translation memory and translated using a translation editor. Users of SDL programs can configure filters and create new ones. Typically, the purpose of configuring a filter is to allow or disallow translation of some content.
