Customizing the interface


The SDL Trados Studio interface can be customized in various ways:

  • Language interface: This interface can be changed to one of the six languages: English, French, German, Spanish, Japanese, and Chinese. In the Welcome view, from the View tab choose User Interface Language, select the language you want from the list, and click OK. SDL Trados Studio will then restart with the interface in the language you have chosen.
