New page

The TM format of [[Wordfast Classic]], [[Wordfast Pro]], and [[Wordfast Anywhere]] is almost the same. However, due to some differences in how each tool ha, it is recommended to take the following points into consideration:

'''Reorganize'''

Before moving the TM from [[Wordfast Classic]] to [[Wordfast Pro]], you must "'''Reorganize'''" it. You should do the same when moving a TM from [[Wordfast Pro]] to [[Wordfast Classic]]. In both cases, this means you should click the button "'''Reorganize'''" on the TM tab of [[Wordfast Classic]] Setup dialogue.

'''Tags'''

While using a [[Wordfast Pro]] TM in [[Wordfast Classic]], you can get better matching rates (sometimes raised from 70s to 100) by opening (a copy of) the WFP TM in Word and applying one find-replace operation on the tags before using the TM in WFC.

WFP TM format tags look like this:

&tA; &tB; &tC; &tD; ect.

They start with (&t) and end with (;). So, one can use MS Word Find-Replace dialogue to replace them using this (four-letter) formula:

Find what: &t*; Replace with: (Leave it empty!) Use wildcards (checked)

Currently, you can do the same using the [[Wordfast Classic]] filter "Remove All Tags".

Open '''Data Editor''' by clicking the second rightmost toolbar button, and then open the "'''Tools'''" tab.

In WF Classic, do not forget to (1) "Reorganize" the TM, and (2) lower the "Fuzzy Threshold" to 50.
