I work with a client that sends me .xlf files to translate. I like to proofread at least once in MS Word before sending a translation off - but this isn't possible with xlf. Does anyone know how to convert an xlf to a docx for this purpose?

as a bilingual file from your CAT-tool, and proofread in Word. | | | m_j_s Germany Local time: 19:33 German to English TOPIC STARTER Convert .xlf to .docx (or .xlsx, .pptx, .pdf, etc) with no markup language | Feb 27, 2017 |
This is certainly one option, thanks. Is there a way of doing this that doesn't result in a Word file full of markup language? | | | Samuel Murray Netherlands Local time: 19:33 Member (2006) English to Afrikaans + ... Which tools? | Feb 27, 2017 |

I have memoQ and Trados 2015. These documents were translated in memoQ.

Thanks again for your suggestion. I'm rather hoping to be able to read a clean document: no markup, all images and formatting present, etc. Perhaps there's an external tool capable of this? I did see that Trados has a feature for Trados-format xliff (http://producthelp.sdl.com/kb/Articles/3448.html). | | | To report site rules violations or get help, contact a site moderator: You can also contact site staff by submitting a support request » Convert .xlf to .docx (or .xlsx, .pptx, .pdf, etc) Protemos translation business management system | Create your account in minutes, and start working! 3-month trial for agencies, and free for freelancers!
