Running custom batch task sequences on existing projects or files

In addition to the default batch task sequences, you can customize batch task sequences which suit your needs.

Procedure

  1. Decide whether you want to run the batch task sequence on an entire project or some project files:
    • To run batch task sequences on an entire project, go to the Projects view and select the project you want to run batch task sequences on.
    • To run batch task sequences on a file or a selection of files, go to the Projects view, select a project, and then go to the Files view and select the file or files you want to run batch task sequences on.
  2. On the Home tab, select Batch Tasks.
  3. Select Custom.
  4. On the Batch Tasks page, select tasks from the Available Tasks list, and then select Add to transfer them to the Selected Tasks list.
  5. Select Next.
  6. On the Files page, consult the files to be batch processed for each language, and select or clear the checkboxes next to the files which do not suit your translation purpose.
  7. Select Next.
  8. On the Settings page, make any adjustments to the default settings. These settings vary depending on the tasks you chose to include in the batch task sequence.
  9. Select Finish.
  10. Select Close when you have finished working with the task results. Any reports generated from the batch task are displayed in the Reports view.
  11. If you are working with a Trados GroupShare server-based project, switch to the Files view, right-click the files that you have just edited, and then select Check in.
