Hello world!
I have a problem with loading filters in Trados Studio 2011.
I should load a filter file with ".wfs" extension, but TS2011 only seems to accept ".sdltm.filters" files.
Did someone have previously the same issue?
Thank you for your time (and best wishes for 2012)!

M.

WFS Dec 23, 2011

Hello Marila,
WFS (Workbench Filter Settings) files are intended for Translator's Workbench 2007 or earlier. They won't work in Studio.

Any way to convert it?

No way, but manual settings in Studio Dec 23, 2011

Hi Marila,
there's no way you can convert it, as Studio works a different way.

Try to load the WFS file to Workbench and see what the filter settings are supposed to do. You can then apply the same settings in Studio under "Project Settings > Language Pairs > Language Pair > Translation Memory and Automated Translation > Filters" and under the same path but "Update" instead of "Filters" at the end.

HTH?
