Hello!

I'm working on a big project in Transit NXT. The translated files are being proofread and it would be great if I can see what's done by the reviewer in track changes. Is there a way to export a file so I can see what's changed? The reviewer is keen to show me his work so I can improve.

Thank you in advance!

Export? Apr 20, 2016

Is your reviewer working in the original file format, like MS Word or InDesign? Or is he editing the target language files, like *.ENU?

Use Transit's "Log as revision" function Apr 20, 2016

The latest version of Transit NXT has a track changes function, called "Log as revision". If you created the project and you yourself sent it to the reviewer to work in Transit, you can make use of this function when you receive the job back.
When you unpack the reviewed TPF, select the "Log as revision" checkbox in the Unpack translation window. That will then find any changes the reviewer made to your work, and you can see them in the "Segment info" window, with colours indicating the ch

Using the filters under the View ribbon, you can ask Transit to show you just the segments with changes, which will be a quicker way to view them.

If you didn't send the project to the reviewer, you won't be able to use the function in this way. You may have to just use an Office "Compare" function, for example.

I'm not sure if this works, but you could try the following:
- Copy the source and language files of your own translation to a folder "Mine".
- Copy the source and language files of the translation of your reviewer to a folder "Reviewer".
- Reset the status of your translation project to Untranslated.
- Embed the two folders Mine and Reviewer as reference folders.
- Start translating again.

Segments without modifications by the reviewer should be insert

Segments without modifications by the reviewer should be inserted automatically.
For those segments that contain any modification, you should get two matches: your own translation and the one of the reviewer.

no, but you can export with colours. You can adjust font colors according to the segment status. e.g. all not translated in red.
