Review workflow for files exported in native format
If you need to send the native target file to a reviewer and then import the changes they made back into your project, you can use the Trados Studio Retrofit feature.
About this task
When importing the reviewed target file, you can also check and, if necessary, correct the reverse alignment.
When importing changes from an externally reviewed target file, you have to take into consideration the following limitations of the Retrofit task:
- Reviewers must restrict themselves to making changes inside the paragraphs of the target file and not add new paragraphs or change their order. However, reviewers can make any changes within the paragraph: changing text, adding or changing formatting, or changing the order of segments.
- Reviewers must not use additional features from the external application used to edit the file (for example, Track Changes or Comments from Microsoft Word). Trados Studio will not import any of these changes, only text edits.
