11 The Review Challenge and Solution Some reviewers do not want to learn how to use Studio to review translations They prefer using Microsoft Word or Microsoft Excel for reviewing They want to make all kinds of review changes to translations in Word Change translations Add review comments, update existing comments Use Tracked Changes in Word to highlight their changes BUT: this all needs to work with Studio's SDL XLIFF format! This format is very different from Word/Excel as it is a translation format vs. a wordprocessing/spreadsheet format The breakthrough solution: SDL XLIFF Converter for Microsoft Office FREE add-on to SDL Trados Studio 2009 Available soon on Open Exchange
