Import Package Files

Package files allow different Wordfast Pro (WFP) users to share files. When you import a package file, you automatically connect the files to translation memories and glossaries. You also gain access to all translatable files and additional resources. This eliminates the need for manually creating a project.

To import package files:

  1. On the Projects tab, click Import Package.
      Best Practice:

    For ease of use, you can drag-and-drop a package file and move it into the application window white space.

  2. On the Import Package dialog, click Browse to locate and select the package file.

    Required fields are marked with a red asterisk.

  3. Choose one of the following:

    • Update a project by clicking Update an existing project and its options.

    • Create a new project by clicking Create a new project and its options.

  4. (Optional) Select Open project after importing to open the updated or new project when the import completes.
  5. Click Import.

    The package file is imported.

      Note:

    If you did not deselect Open project after importing, the current project view opens and displays files for translation.
