Topic: Trados 2011: Is it possible to create bilingual files for external review with only Word 2003?
Poster: serge_shp
Hello.
I have a very obsolete Windows XP system with Trados 2011 and only MS Office 2003 available. Actually, this is an emulation of Windows system on a host running Linux. It has rather limiting resources, and normally I do not use Windows, just for Trados or so.
Recently I encountered a problem of issuing a bilingual file after translation for an external review. I know that there is a standard batch workflow to do this in Trados 2011 and possibly higher. In my case the corresponding task can be launched and does create the requested file .review.docx, but this file is empty. Apparently this is due to MS Office 2010 lacking on the system. The Trados documentation tacitly suggests creating only .docx bilinguals, and I see no other options in the settings of the batch task in the program.
Is it possible to handle this task either for Word 2003 (.doc), or making use of Libreoffice, which can understand .docx?
