Exporting Translations

When you’re done translating, export in a format that matches your workflow.

Export steps

1. Go to File → Export
2. Choose an export type (for example DOCX, bilingual table, or a CAT return format)
3. Pick a destination and save

CAT tool round-trips

If you started from a CAT exchange format (memoQ/Trados/Phrase/CafeTran), export the matching return format.

Important rules for round-trips

• Segment count must match: don’t merge or split segments.
• Keep tags balanced: for example <b>text</b> (not <b>text).
• Don’t “pretty edit” bilingual tables: changing the table structure in Word can break reimport.
• Run your CAT tool’s QA after reimport.

WARNING

Don’t merge or split segments in Supervertaler when you plan to reimport into a CAT tool.

Choosing the right export

• For CAT tool workflows, use the matching CAT export:
  • memoQ bilingual DOCX
  • Trados return package (SDLRPX) when you imported SDLPPX
  • Phrase bilingual DOCX
  • CafeTran bilingual table DOCX
• For review-only delivery, consider Bilingual Tables.
