Greetings one and all from a newcomer to ProZ

A correspondent is asking for translators willing to work in Trados tagged files; he also states that the translator does not require Trados installed.

I use Word 2002 and Windows XP; I don\'t have Trados.

Can anyone point out a single giant pitfall that should make me turn and run a mile from bidding on the job?

Any input very welcome, thanks

Dan Bird, London

Why not May 16, 2003

Welcome to Proz Daniel.



If you are not too confused by all the tags and ensure that you do not change them, why not?

I fully agree with Frank May 17, 2003

If you\'re careful enough not to touch/delete/change any tag, everything will go smooth for you...

Go ahead, accept the bidding and enjoy your job!
