Converting TXML File to Unclean Document - By Yasmin Moslem

You can generate a bilingual (unclean) DOC from a Wordfast Pro TXML as follows:

  • Download and install the latest version of Wordfast Classic (even the demo version).
  • Open *a copy of* the WFP TXML in MS Word. (You have to use a copy of the TXML file as it will be modified during the process.)
  • It is better to select a TM with the same language pair as the TXML file so that Wordfast will assign the correct language to the target segments.
  • If WFC does not recognize the TXML file, press Alt+Down or click the "Next Segment" WFC toolbar button. (Skip this step if you automatically receive the following message.)
  • Click "OK" for the message asking if you want to tag the document.
  • Click "OK" for the message asking if you want to "Convert this TXML file to a segmented DOC file". Once you receive the confirmation message, close MS Word.
  • Open the TXML file in WF Pro. From the "File" menu, select "Save Translated File".
  • Open the target DOC in MS Word, press Alt+Down or click the "Next Segment" WFC toolbar button, and then close the open segment using [Shift+]Alt+End.
  • Save the DOC file.[1]
