Translate in SDL Trados Studio

Intended audience
Translators
More and more companies are using Rigi technology to localize their dynamic applications in context.

Rigi key features
- Translate in context (WYSIWYG): select a text in the Trados Studio editor will automatically load a preview and highlight the selected text.
The other way around works too: selecting a text in the preview will select the segment in your Trados Studio editor. - Process review comments from language testers: select a comment that a language tester made, will show the preview with the text highlighted.
It will also select the segment in your Trados Studio editor, where you can copy the suggested translation.
Instructions
- Install the Rigi plugin for SDL Trados Studio.
- Open the Rigi XLIFF file in SDL Trados Studio.
You should now see a Rigi menu on the ribbon:

Each string in the string list contains a reference for that particular UI text.

Alternatively, it is possible to open multiple Rigi documents at a time:

- Click Ribbon > Rigi > Preview.

This will open the Rigi Viewer.

You can now edit in-context. The usage of the online editor is explained in this article.

Cannot see previews?
Verify with your project manager that you are assigned as an external translator for this language.
Note that Trados will add a region code if it is not specified in Rigi.
For example, ja (Japanese) will be converted to ja-JP (Japanese for Japan).
