Hello,

I'm working on a file with a lot of formatting tags. I've received an sdlppx package and I've translated it as usual.

Now, the source file has a lot of formatting, such as bold + different font size, which should be kept.

Hello,

I'm working on a file with a lot of formatting tags. I've received an sdlppx package and I've translated it as usual.

I've tried to preview the translated file but it seems impossible. Maybe as it is an sdl file.

Now, the source file has a lot of formatting, such as bold + different font size, which should be kept.

In Studio you can see the source segment as it really shows (such as the font size and colour, etc.) while I can't see it in MemoQ.

I'm sure there is a way to view at least segment by segment how it will show the final translated source file. Or at least a way to view what the tags mean?

This would be useful if you have to change the word sequence in a segment so that the right translated term is well formatted as in source.

Thanks
