Hi, I am using SDL Trados Studio 2014 SP2.

When I create a Target language document, the comments I created in the bilingual work file do not appear in the Word document. Is there a setting that I need to adjust so that the comments appear in the Target file?

Thanks!

I have the same problem. Dec 22, 2014

I noticed yesterday that comments weren't showing in the target file.

I'm also wondering how this can be solved

Yes.. there is a setting! Dec 22, 2014

Perhaps this article will help you as it covers the use of comments in this way.

Paul

Thank you Paul Dec 23, 2014

My settings were already set to export comments, so I'm not sure why it wasn't working, but I did a test, and now the comments exported. So thank you! And I can look back to this to reset my settings if it is not working in the future...

... you were making the change in your Project Settings or File -> Options after the file had already been added to the Project? This would have no effect at all. You have to set this up prior to creating your Project.

doc or docx Apr 29, 2015

If your source file is doc, there is no such option. Make sure to re-save your doc as docx.
