Hi everyone,

Any solution on this problem?

I use Trados 7 with Thai Word 2003. The text format for both source (the blue highlight) and target (the green one) seem to chage from their original format. For example, English source text is always changed to italic, and the target (Thai) dose not display the specific font I selected in WorkBench's setup. I have to manually chage them every time and that is not a good thing to do at all.

Any help?

Use better Tageditor Mar 10, 2006

This is a common problem when the format in Word is not proper or fonts are missing. With Trados 7 you can work now with Tageditor so you can forget all the Word formatting problems.

Thanks! But what if I am dealing with DOC or RTF files most of the time? Is TagEditor more desireable?

Thanks!

Yes! Mar 10, 2006

Is the best way to work with heavy formatted docs, it may be a little disturbing at the beginning (all the tags marks) but soon you will be comfortable with it.

Why do you think Trados has now implemented this feature?



Like the other CAT programs DVX, SDLX, it is better to work in the same interface all kind of documents.

Thanks for your help! Just one more question I tested the TagEditor with my pre-translated text. The Thai text on 100% matches appearred very small and I couldn't change them. How can I do that? For brand new text, I think I can adjust it.

Thank you

When you clean it, it will be like the original, all this information, color, font, size, etc. are tags marks. Let Trados work for you...
