Leveraging Repetitive Content

Leveraging repetitive content re-uses segments that are repeated in a file. In the following example there are multiple instances of the phrase Seamless Database Integration, so when the translator enters the translation the duplicate segment is populated as well. Refer to Configuring Auto-Propagation.

To leverage repetitive content from the TXLF Editor Translation tab:

  1. Open a file for translation.
  2. Select the first translatable segment.

    In this example, the duplicate segments have been located with a filtered search.

  3. Enter the translation into the first segment.
  4. Commit the term by using one of the following methods:
    • Click Commit

    • Click Next Segment or press Alt+Down

    The entered target segment is saved to the TM and automatically propagates this target segment for all repeats of the source segment throughout the file.
