Exporting data from MultiTerm to Trados Terminology

You cannot upload a file-based MultiTerm termbase (*.sdltb) directly into Trados Terminology termbases. However, you can export the data from your MultiTerm termbase into a termbase for use in Trados Terminology.

Procedure

  1. OpenMultiTerm and save your termbase definition as an *.xdt file.
  2. Export your MultiTerm termbase into *.xml using the default export definition.
  3. In Trados Studio, select Sign in in the top-right corner to connect to your cloud account.
  4. Log in with your RWS ID credentials. Trados Studio shows all the cloud accounts that you are a member of.
  5. Select your cloud account name from the drop-down menu, and then select RWS Account at the bottom of the window. This opens your cloud account in your default browser where you are prompted to log in.
  6. In the cloud environment, go to the Terminology view or to the Projects > Resources > Termbases.
  7. Create a cloud termbase. Make sure you select Load an existing MultiTerm termbase definition and use the *.xdt file.
  8. After the termbase is created, import the *.xml file into Trados Studio.
