Hi everyone,

Please tell me how I can change Wordfast TM which I have been compiling for 8 years into Trados Studio 2017 TM?

How can I merge Wordfast TM into Trados TM?

Looking forward to hearing from you.

Convert your Wordfast TM, which is in .txt format into .tmx, using Wordfast Converter http://wordfast.net/zip/WfConverter.zip
Then open Studio, go to Translation Memories View, create a new empty TM and import the .tmx file into your new Studio memory. Voila.

The funny thing is that after importing it to Trados it is empty.
I think it is due to the fact that Wordfast TM was created in English to Polish and Polish to English combination in one file.
