SDL Comments -> MS WOrd Comment -> MS footnotes Jan 23, 2017

SDL Trados Studio 2015 lets you add comments to your translations and comments, if added to a Word file, will also appear in Word.

Kind regards,

Guillaume


... and then you can change MS comments into footnotes by using this VBA code:

Sub comment2footnote()
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Dim oDoc As Document, oComment As Comment
Set oDoc = ActiveDocument
For Each oComment In ActiveDocument.Comments
oDoc.Footnotes.Add Range:=oComment.Scope, Text:=oComment.Range.Text
oComment.Delete
Next
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub

There are many times translators need to insert an endnote to help the reader gain more from the text. For example, we might add a note to include the source language equivalence of a word or elaborate on an issue in an academic instructive text.

I think Trados should add this feature to its software.


Hello,

This is Guillaume from SDL.

SDL Trados Studio 2015 lets you add comments to your translations and comments, if added to a Word file, will also appear in Word.

Kind regards,

Guillaume


Hi, Guillaume. Sorry to bother and recover this, but you say it's possible but you don't say HOW (to add or insert a footnote in SDL Trados). Could you explain? I've been checking for this for a good while and there is no info on this on the SDL Website, forums or anywhere in Google.

Guillaume is talking about "comments", not footnotes...
