Hi
I have finished a longish job (8000+ segments) and want to have a final TM where only the most recent entries are stored.
How can I do this?
With Cafetran I have the option to save the open final file as TMX file.
With Memsource?

TIA
Wolfgang

Open the MXLIFF file in another CAT tool (Trados, memoQ …) and confirm the segments to a TM of your choice.

Thanks Thomas.
Looks like Memsource is still a bit crippled.

It's a closed environment with limited functionality, but if you pay them a licence fee, you can get some more functionality, notably in relation to TMs and TBs. I prefer just to use memoQ for some of the Memsource files, and proper Memsource support is being looked into by memoQ.

In which way is it crippled? Nov 27, 2021

Opening a xliff and confirming all doesn’t take longer than importing a tmx. File extension is the only thing that differs.
If you pay for Memsource as you do for Cafetran, then you can easily download a tmx file.

I can’t check it at the moment, but probably this feature is available even with free functionality. Not sure though.

Thanks Stepan, appreciated as always.
I do have a subscription to Memsource but wasn't sure that the TMX I can download is created from the translated final files and is not the TMX I used throughout the project which is full of crap.
