A customer sent me an rtf-dokument and asked me to translate the names of the links to his website. In Word when I switch the code-view off, the names appear as blue text:

Frequently asked questions
Technical documents
Installation

But in Trados TE these names are not visible, and the only method to translate these names seems to remove the whole entry and put the translation in place, which will be black and does not function as a link, of course... See more

I searched the fora but could not find an explanation.

Thanks for help!

process hyperlinks Jan 22, 2011

I can't remember how this works in Tag Editor, but in Studio 2009 you can customise whether you want to process hyperlinks in tools>options>rtf>other settings.

Its a bilingual document Jan 22, 2011

Thanks Emma. I should have stated that I got a bilingual document. Someone had translated it either with Trados or Wordfast, probably in Word. Studio will not open this file, not even after clean-up.

edit hyperlinks Jan 22, 2011

When you right-click a hyperlink and select the "edit hyperlink" option in the local menu, the "hyperlink editing" dialog box appears, in which you edit(=translate) the "Text to display" top row.

Have to do it manually in Word Jan 22, 2011

I can change the text in Word as Antonín explained. Strangely I have to save and reload the file after every item, otherwise the edit-option does not show up (Word 2002).
Fortunately there were only about 10 entries to edit.
