Split or Merge a Segment

You can split or merge an existing segment to change segmentation. This is particularly useful for certain file types or for languages where the next segment content may need to precede the previous segment. The best time to split or merge a segment is early in the translation process.

To split or merge a segment:

  1. In TXLF Editor, on the Translation tab, select the segment to split or merge.
  2. Click Merge or Split.

    The segment is merged or split and the segment Status column contains either or , respectively. If the merge includes an entire paragraph, this is denoted with .
