Exporting entries from a translation memory

You can export a subset of the translation memory by performing a search and exporting the result set from the search query.
  1. In Tools > Translation Memories > Translation Memory: <TM>, perform a Search for text that returns the entries you wish to export.
    Note: The check boxes next to the entries in the search result set are for deletions, and have no effect on the export. If you check a subset of the entries, the export ignores this and acts upon the entire result set.
  2. You can optionally click the check box for Advanced Search to create or select an attribute filter to apply.
  3. When the result set for your search is returned in the results pane, click Export All Entries.
    Note: If have selected an attribute filter to apply (or have modified the Default filter), the export will be the intersection of the result set and the filter criteria. For example, if you applied a filter consisting of Import Job ID equals 1009, the export will be all entries in the search result set that have an Import Job ID of 1009.
    The Export TMX Entries from TM Database <TM> dialog appears.
  4. In the Export TMX Entries from TM Database <TM> dialog, select the appropriate encoding
  5. Click Export.
  6. Choose to save the file to your computer and select the location.
  7. Close the Download Complete dialog box.
  8. Click OK in the Export dialog box.
  9. You can import the TMX file into an application that recognizes the TMX format.
