Using the sample file


The sample file for this chapter, Chap_05_SampleFile_01.docx, is a modified version of the sample file for Chapter 3, Translating a File. For the purpose of this chapter, however, we will not translate it. Instead, we will open it in SDL Trados Studio and perform an analysis against the TM that you used to translate the sample file in Chapter 3, Translating a File, (Chap_03_SampleFile_01.docx). This will show you how to obtain a word count by comparing a new document for translation against a TM containing translations that you have done previously. One real-life situation in which this commonly happens is when you receive an updated version of a document that you have translated previously using a TM, and want to leverage (that is to say, re-use) that TM to give you matches when you translate the updated document. This is the situation that we are simulating here.
