Extending custom Bilingual Excel settings for specific future projects

Create a project template dedicated to processing bilingual Excel documents. Project templates enable Trados Studio to automatically use the Bilingual Excel file type and your custom settings only for projects that contain Excel files with bilingual content.

Procedure

  1. Go to the Projects view.
  2. Go to Project Settings > File Types.
  3. Activate the Bilingual Excel file type by moving it before the generic Microsoft Excel 2007-2016 file type.
  4. Configure your custom settings on the Common page of the Bilingual Excel file.
  5. Select OK.
  6. Go to the Projects view, and select Create Project Template.
  7. Give a name to your new template, for example Template for Bilingual Excel files.
  8. Select Save, and then, in the Project Template Settings dialog, make further changes to your project.
  9. Select OK.

Results

You can now select this template when you create a new project from New Project wizard > Project Type page > Create project based on a project template. You can also edit this template at any time by going to File > Setup > Project Templates > Edit.
