I'm trying to analyse several mif files converted to SDLXLIFF by my employer (using Studio 2011).

I get the error message "No filter definition set" and when I look in the folder C:\Program Files (x86)\SDL\SDL Trados Studio\Studio1\Filters there are no Framemaker filters at all there. Just InDesign, JavaResource, OpenOffice and RC.

Am I doing something wrong? Where can I find these filter definitions?

Thanks, but ... Mar 13, 2012

Thanks for replying. I am a bit puzzled though. My software is fully updated, should I still try to apply the patch in the KB article you mention?

Is there nowhere to just download the file type definitions? I'm quite happy if I can just analyse the files. Translating them seems to work fine.

Best regards
Michael
