TMX (Translation Memory Exchange) is an XML-based file used by CAT tools for the storage, update, and exchange of translated paired strings. Although different CAT tools may vary in their default file formats for Translation Memory, generally they all support TMX files. CAT tool specific Translation Memory Files can be converted to a TMX, or external TMXs can be imported to expand a TM database. TMX is the industry-standard file format for Translation Memory Management.
