Trados for translators

At the heart of Trados are four translation technologies: translation memory (TM), termbases, machine translation (MT) and Generative Translation. Each can be used separately, but their real power comes when all four are brought together into a single solution that helps you deliver high-quality translations quickly while keeping costs competitive.

With Trados you can open a single file for translation, accept a package from your client, or connect to a shared project. Trados supports all kinds of working scenarios and all the latest file formats, as well as other aspects of complex translation workflows.

 

Whatever file type you can think of – a webpage provided as an HTML file, a multilingual Excel file, a Word document full of tracked changes, a scanned PDF, a complete brochure in Adobe InDesign IDML format – Trados will make it easy to work with so you can get the translation done and delivered on time. 

Because Trados handles document structure and formatting, you can focus on what matters most – translating content to the highest standard.

 

To help you work faster, Trados offers innovative features such as:

When you use Trados, you can collaborate with any language service provider (LSP) or client that uses Trados or any other translation technology that supports open standards such as XLIFF and TMX.
