The XLIFF:doc format is part of the Interoperability Now! initiative. It aspires to overcome the subtle differences between the XLIFF documents that translation tools use. It also proposes a project package format called TIPP that is to make resources and other settings interoperable among tools.

XLIFF:doc documents are almost always part of TIPP packages.

memoQ is part of the Interoperability Now! initiative, and has full support for TIPP packages and XLIFF:doc documents. XLIFF:doc documents are perfectly normal XLIFF files. But many elements and attributes are even more standardized: Translation tools don't have to use workarounds to be compatible with another.

You see this window if you import an XLIFF:doc document outside a TIPP package.

How to get here

When you're importing a TIPP package:

1.Start importing a TIPP package. In the second page of the import wizard, you can configure the XLIFF:doc filter.

2.To configure XLIFF:doc settings: Click Configure the XLIFF:doc filter. The Document import settings window appears with the XLIFF:doc settings.

Or:

When you get XLIFF:doc files, or unzip them from of a TIPP package:

1.Start importing an XLIFF:doc (.xliffdoc) file.

2.In the Document import options window, select the XLIFF:doc files, and click Change filter and configuration.

3.The Document import settings window appears. From the Filter drop-down list, choose XLIFF:doc filter.

To work with TIPP in online projects, use this: TIPP packages can only be imported into local projects. But you can unzip a TIPP package, and import the XLIFF:doc documents into online projects.

What can you do?

1.Choose what happens to translation units that must not be translated: Normally, memoQ imports them as locked segments. You can change this on the General tab. To leave them out entirely: Under Translation units, click the Do not import radio button.

2.Choose what happens when a single XLIFF:doc document contains several source documents. Normally, memoQ imports these as separate documents. You can change this on the General tab. To import them as one single document: Under Multiple source files, click the Import as one document radio button.

3.Import the status of segments from the XLIFF:doc document

When you finish

To confirm the settings, and return to the Document import options window or to the Import TIPP package wizard: Click OK.

To return the Document import options window or to the Import TIPP package wizard, and not change the filter settings: Click Cancel.

In the Document import options window: Click OK again to start importing the documents.

In the Import TIPP package wizard: Click Finish to start importing the package.
