Time From To Content
12:35 Jun 26, 2014 Giuseppe Bellone: 1056652 All I have a question about studio
12:35 Jun 26, 2014 SDL_Guillaume: 1660157 All Hello. I'm using Studio 2014 and would like some advice on what to do when the target text fields that I have completed and confirmed don't transfer across to the target file. I then have to cut and paste my translated text from Studio into Word. It doesn't happen often, but it's very inconvenient when it does.
12:35 Jun 26, 2014 SDL_Guillaume: 1660157 All sorry, I thought it would be easier to have it in sight
12:35 Jun 26, 2014 Elizabeth Kulikov: 1806613 All not sure. So far they've sent them all in .doc
12:36 Jun 26, 2014 SDL_Guillaume: 1660157 All ok, please ask
12:37 Jun 26, 2014 Catherine Da Costa: 1363381 All The same thing happened to a friend of mine and she also had to cut and paste.
12:37 Jun 26, 2014 SDL SteveBarlow: 1649755 All We have something called the Starter license, but this is only usful if you only recieve Project Packages as you a limited in TM development as well that you cannot export to the source format, only SDLXLIFF
12:37 Jun 26, 2014 Giuseppe Bellone: 1056652 All I created a small WORD file e saved it as a PDF to try STUDIO 2014 but when I loaded the file it did not open, what I could see was only the top title and the bottom , the same title, but now segments. I don't kow where I made a misteke
12:37 Jun 26, 2014 SDL_Guillaume: 1660157 All ok
12:38 Jun 26, 2014 SDL SteveBarlow: 1649755 All i would not recommend this version to anyone that recieved anything other than PPX files (project packages)
12:38 Jun 26, 2014 SDL SteveBarlow: 1649755 All The freelance version is the best version we have for Freelancers
12:38 Jun 26, 2014 Giuseppe Bellone: 1056652 All I mean when I loaded th PDF file of course, no problems for the Word file, but only for the PDF one!
12:38 Jun 26, 2014 Elizabeth Kulikov: 1806613 All ok. thanks.
12:38 Jun 26, 2014 SDL_Guillaume: 1660157 All sorry for the delays
12:39 Jun 26, 2014 Giuseppe Bellone: 1056652 All Doesn't Studio load automatically PDF files as well?
12:40 Jun 26, 2014 Drew MacFadyen: 601248 All Hi everyone - thanks for attending today's event. Just a reminder that this chat room is not always the ideal location for one on one support. Although we have SDL sales/support staff present - this chat is not intended to serve as PMSA (Product maintenance and support). Please be patient with SDL staff - thanks, Drew
12:40 Jun 26, 2014 SDL_Guillaume: 1660157 All both PDF nd Word are supported by Studio 2014
12:42 Jun 26, 2014 SDL_Guillaume: 1660157 All so when you type in the target your translation
12:42 Jun 26, 2014 Giuseppe Bellone: 1056652 All GBergero, sorry lost page.
12:42 Jun 26, 2014 SDL_Guillaume: 1660157 All and then confirm the segment
12:42 Jun 26, 2014 SDL_Guillaume: 1660157 All could you tell me what happens?
12:43 Jun 26, 2014 SDL SteveBarlow: 1649755 All @Ryszard - what is the problem you are experiencing?
12:44 Jun 26, 2014 William Pairman: 66738 All One thing I've always wondered, why do you have to choose 5 languages at the outset? I only work with 2, I end up picking Catalan, French and Portuguese just to add something
12:44 Jun 26, 2014 SDL_Guillaume: 1660157 All it is ok, I am taking you back in Giuseppe
12:45 Jun 26, 2014 island-vlad: 852707 All Hi everybody
