Step 5: Send Files for Review for a Regulated Industry from WorldServer

After you have finished translating a document and the changes are imported back into SDL WorldServer from SDL Trados Studio, the job is passed to the next phase of review. These workflows allow you to send it to reviewers using Studio or to reviewers using Word. You can then get, for example, a subject matter expert review to check the meaning in the translated text and a proofreader review to check for the spelling and punctuation.

For detailed instructions on how to do these procedures in WorldServer, see the WorldServer and Studio Integration Guide.

Review in Studio

In WorldServer, the project manager creates a WorldServer project package (*.wxsz) and then sends it to the Studio user for review. The package also includes the QA Checker Profile configurations * set in WorldServer. These ensure that the same quality settings are used for all the files part of that WorldServer project.

Once reviewed, a return package can be created and uploaded to WorldServer. If further translation work is needed, the return package can be sent out for translation in Studio again.

Bilingual Review in Word

If you are in a workflow where the reviewer does not have Studio, you can export to an external review document in MS Word format. You can then review the document in Word and update WorldServer with the corrections.
