Hi everyone,

I'm using OmegaT for a few weeks now and I'd like to know if it's possible to open/save files from Trados?

Thanks in advance for any answer.

Claude

Yes, see the OmegaT.org website Nov 4, 2011

There's a "compatibility" HowTo that explains it. You use a plug-in from Okapi.

I did it ... Nov 4, 2011

I found the plugin and put it in the OmegaT's plugins directory.

But ... I don't have a TTX file to test it!

Thanks for the tip.

My opinion about Wordfast Nov 5, 2011

I tried to work with Wordfast but this program freezed sometimes Word and was very slow. I use Word 2010 on an iMac. So I prefer OmegaT.
What do you think about OmegaT?

Agencies and OmegaT Nov 5, 2011

Hello everbody,

I have only just discovered the existence of OmegaT (yes, I live in the 19th century). I just wondered what sort of attitude agencies tend to have when asking for Trados and you reply "don't have it but do have OmegaT".

Could anyone please provide feeback?

Many thanks,

Steve
