Exporting Packages

A GlobalLink Package (GLP) of project files comprises everything required for a project. Using the Export Package option, a complete project package can be shared with other Wordfast Pro installations without requiring a manual setup of the project on the receiving Wordfast Pro.

To export a project package (GLP):

  1. On the Projects tab, select the project.

    Reference: Project Files Search and Sort.

  2. Click Export Package.

    The Export Package dialog box appears.

  3. Select export type:

    • Entire Project

    • Specific target languages and resources selectively, including:

      • Source Files

      • TXLF Files

      • Glossaries

      • Translation Memories

      • Reference Files

      • Blacklists

  4. Select a naming convention.

    • GLP Name to have the export process name the file

    • Custom Name to specify the name to be used

  5. Select a location to receive the GLP file.
  6. Click Export.

    The exported GLP is built and saved to the selected folder. This GLP file can now be passed on to a different Wordfast Pro installation.
