Hi everyone !

I would need your help to convert a .txt memory into a TMX format for my client.
I cannot do it myselft because my wordfast version is quite old and do not enable me to do it.
My client is using Trados and needs the memory undert TMX format.

Can anyone help me ?

Thank you in advance

Join the Wordfast Yahoogroup ([email protected]), and then look in their files section on http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/wordfast/ for a file named Wf2Tmx.exe (or just Wf2Tmx). It converts files in both directions.

Otherwise, you could try using a great piece of free software called Olifant. Basically, open your text memory, click on "File > Export" and then select the appropriate format from the list. It's also great for converting T

By the way, whatever you do, save a copy of your memory just in case!

Hope that helps,

Simon

Hello Samuel,

Years after your post, but I just followed your suggestion, and I am immensely grateful to you and the author of that little tool - it works like a charm!

Best regards,

Does anyone know where it might have gone?
