Importing file type configurations

To add and use multiple different configurations for the same file type in WorldServer, you need to create them in Trados Studio, export them, and them import them into WorldServer.

Before you begin

Make sure that the file type whose configuration you want to import exists both in WorldServer and in Trados Studio. Also, do not change the extension of the configuration file you export from Studio.

If you want to import a Custom XML (Embedded Content Processor) configuration that uses a specific processor to handle embedded content, make sure you import the configuration of the processor before importing the file type configuration.

Procedure

  1. In WorldServer, go to Management > Linguistic Tool Setup > File Types.
  2. Select Import.
  3. In the Import Studio File Type Configuration dialog box, select Browse.
  4. Find and select the configuration that you want to import, and then select Open.
  5. In the Import Studio File Type Configuration dialog box, enter the name and the description that you want the configuration to have in WorldServer.
  6. Select Import.

Results

The file type configuration is imported successfully and is displayed under its corresponding file type.
