Can we have more details please Aug 15, 2008

Hello Irene,

I think you'll get a much better chance to get help if you try to better describe the problem. What do you mean by "delimiters"? Tags? Placeables?

Word 2003 is not a problem.

Wordfast demo problem May 30, 2009

I am trying to test Wordfast using the demo, but I am stumped on the first step of linking the program to Word. The instructions say to plug in the Wordfast template (wordfast.dot) into Word, but I cannot find the template document. Any suggestions?

Thanks, Anthony Anderson

need help with Translation Memory Sep 29, 2009

Hi,
I am new to the program, and I have been watching the video demos over and over trying to get the hang of things.
I am have a problem creating a translation memory and opening it, etc.
How do I even go about creating one..since I do not have an existing TM to open?
Can it be a word document? I am working on a Mac, and I tried to make one on a word document and trying to open it that way, and it says that it is incorrect.

If I ever do get it to work, do I just apply it and it should be okay to use when I am translating a document?

Thanks.

As you can tell, I just need help..I'm struggling.

Create new TM Sep 29, 2009

Hello, these are instructions for Wordfast Classic (the one that works within MS Word, probably version 5.6 something)

On a blank Word document, click the "F" button and the settings interface should pop up. You will already be on the first tab "translation memory" and the first sub-tab is "TM". The second option on the TM tab is "New TM". Just click that button and from there it should be easy, just choose your language codes and then name/save your TM.
