Hi,

I would appreciate some help with the following:
A client has sent me 2 separate sdlxliff files for review in Studio 2011. He did not send a project or a package. How is review done if the files are separate and not part of a project? I mean, I do not have a project to open and then right click on the files to select "open for review".

Thanks in advance.

Open Editor window and drag files into it Jan 24, 2015

I am using Studio 2014, but I would imagine the difference isn't that great. I think the following should work:
Create a new project (File > New > New Project)
Open the Editor window
And just drag the files into the leftmost panel.

It should also be possible to import the files during the creation of the project, but I don't think that's necessary.

Or just.... Jan 24, 2015

... open the sdlxliff as a single file project. This opens for translation, so press ctrl+s to create the project from this, close the file and then open again for review.

Faster than creating a project and you don't have to select the languages.

Regards

Paul
