Trados TTX Glue Fix

21 September 2012 · Computer-aided Translation

This is just a short note covering the master file automatic renaming issue when using the Glue/Unglue feature in SDL Trados 2007.

When using the Glue feature in SDL Trados 2007 for gluing multiple TTX files into a single file, the resulting master TTX files gets renamed automatically upon its first saving in TagEditor. For example, "_MasterFile1.ttx" is renamed to "_MasterFile1.ttx.ttx".ยจ

This presents a problem when you try to unglue the master file into resulting TTX files.

The fix is simple. Just rename the master file removing the ".ttx" file extension, i.e. restore the original name of the master file. The Unglue feature will them work smoothly without any problem.
