.... but perhaps (and I'd recommend being careful with this) you could ecport for external review and then paste your text into the word document and then import back in again afterwards? Might be faster if you have a lot.

It's not really designed for this which is why I said be careful, but if you make sure you copy source to target for all segments before you start and then export then it may work.

Regards

Paul

If you have a lot of stuff that's already been translated, you could import in some other way.
E.g. copy-paste the source and target texts side by side in excel, generate a tmx and import it into your TM. Or just align the two texts and import the result

If you only need to import a couple dozen segments, copy-paste is the fastest way.

Hm...could you please describe it more closely, for us, new users?
