Yesterday CafeTran's developer surprised us all with his announcement that the Christmas version of CafeTran will offer the long-awaited, much requested improvements to the Excel filter.

With this, CafeTran will be on a par with Windows-restricted CAT tools like memoQ and Transit NXT. (Cross-platform alternative Wf Pro also offers good handling of Excel files, though users have to deal with more tags.)

This is what the developer of CafeTran promised:

There are rumors the December release of CafeTran will see the following
improvements to MS Excel and InDesign filters:

1. Ignoring hidden layers (InDesign).
2. Ignoring hidden sheets, rows and columns.
3. Specifying an import column or a range of columns (cells).
4. Specifying an export column.
5. Excel formatting (bold, italics, underline) displayed in the grid.

no surprise Nov 24, 2014

This is CafeTran, developed by only one person. So instead of discussing and discussing features with a team of developers, he implements them

Great work Igor!

As usual, the implementation of the new features is very easy to use. Combine this with a very slick (almost minimalistic) GUI and very well structured menus and you have all what you need to be very productive. On OS X, Linux or Windows. ▲ Collapse
