Hi O.N.,

The scenario is that I receive a Star package, want to translate it in Studio 2014 and then send it back as a Star package.
My client uses Star and wants the Star package back, not the exported target file.

I doubt that STAR CLM is an affordable or realistic solution for your average freelance translator; it appears to be aimed at agencies or large companies with an internal translation service.

Yes, I agree.

Please help me to understand the topic: The standard case is that I receive XLIFF to translate and send back the translated XLIFF. So far, so good, so supported by Transit.

But why should I want to create XLIFF projects as an "average freelance translator"?
Example: When I receive a Word or InDesign for translation, I am expected to deliver translated Word or InDesign documents. What do I need an XLIFF for in this scenario?

O.N.


Because the average freelance translator might not want to do the actual translation in Transit. Probably because they have a better tool.

There is no ready-made solution yet, but if you are willing to get your hands dirty with scripting or have a friend that can develop SDL plug-ins, the solution isn't that difficult. At least, when you don't want to use any reference material in Transit packages (for that you should request a TMX file).

For your inspiration: http://cafetran.wikidot.com/transit

This is how I solved it.

Is there currently an easy way to export Transit NXT projects into Studio 2014, get them done there and reimport them back into Transit?



This is not possible. However, the other way around is possible. Today I received a message from STAR:

Transit/TermStar NXT Service Pack 8

What's new?

  • Additional file types supported: Office 2013, InDesign CC 2014, FrameMaker 12, WebVTT and SDLPPX
  • Project exchange: Added flexibility and efficiency, additional project information, even less translation effort for PPX, XLIFF, and SDLPPX

    So it works for Studio > Transit > Studio, but not for Transit > Studio > Transit.
