Joining Files (TMS)

Content is machine translated from English by Phrase Language AI.

Files can either be split or joined. Once a file is split, it cannot be undone, but a group of files can be viewed together in the editor if joined. Joining files can be useful if a number of small related jobs with the same target and source languages is being worked on together.

Note

Joining more than 100 files (or files containing more than 40,000 segments) at a time may cause performance issues.

To join files, follow these steps:

CAT desktop editor

  1. From the jobs table, select the jobs to be joined.

  2. Click Download and select Bilingual file type.

    The Download bilingual files window opens.

  3. Change file Format if required.

  4. Select Join files.

  5. Click Download.

    The file will be downloaded to your system where it can be opened with the editor.

Each job is separated in the file with a bar indicating job number and filename.

CAT web editor

  1. From the jobs table, select the jobs to be joined.

  2. Click on a filename of the selected jobs.

    All selected jobs are opened in the editor and are separated with a bar indicating job number and filename.
