Hi,

I'm trying to import a txt glossary to my translation platform and something strange is happening.
I followed the usual procedure (Terminology---New/Select Terminology---Import----Browse to locate the file---click OK)
Once I do that, I get a message saying "0 of the 32 found terms will be imported. Press OK button to continue".
Obviously, I want all the terms to be imported so that I get choices if a word that is in my glossary appears in my translation!

Hi,

I'm trying to import a txt glossary to my translation platform and something strange is happening.
I followed the usual procedure (Terminology---New/Select Terminology---Import----Browse to locate the file---click OK)
Once I do that, I get a message saying "0 of the 32 found terms will be imported. Press OK button to continue".
Obviously, I want all the terms to be imported so that I get choices if a word that is in my glossary appears in my translation!

For each line, I get the message: Invalid term at line 1, Invalid term at line 2, etc.

Does anyone know why this is happening? For me not to be able to access the glossary renders the software useless to me. Any suggestion would be appreciated ▲ Collapse

you should provide more details on your glossary (namely, how it was created, what is its format) or share it/ a sample of it.
