What is your use case? Jun 15, 2016

Winnie

Can you please explain what you use case is where you need to do this?

There is an Open Exchange app that allows you to open .TMX in the Editor, which would convert it to .SDLXLIFF, but I guess you mean standard XLIFF (.XLF) and I don't think you can generate .XLF out of this.

Just create a new project and add it as a translatable file.

TTX isn't TMX.

sdlxliff is the working format for Studio, and is really the format you want, i.e. xlf. So after you have imported the file, you find the converted file in your target language folder - one of the subfolders of your Studio project folder. In my case it's marked nb-NO for Norwegian bokmål, which is my target language.

Hope the above will help you.
