Thanks! Sep 26, 2009

Many thanks for your reply. So far I've done three pages and the missing text from page 1 has not appeared yet. Could it appear even later on? I somehow doubt it, but it would be great if that were true! I certainly will keep copies of everything

Thanks again,


Sheila

WF doesn't necessarily translate the boxes in the same order as the one in which they are appearing. But at the end of the page or when beginning the next page, everything should be allright.
Don't forget to clean up the Word document after translating so that the segments in the TM will be updated. It is also a good idea to keep the Word file and its .bak copy, sometimes it helps if you have to look up something quickly.

May be they are graphics? Sep 26, 2009

If they are regular text boxes, there is no reason for WF not to find them, unless they are not. Try clicking on them to make sure they actually are editable.

Also, I'm not sure WF can handle WordArt artifacts.

Regards,

Daniel

No, they are text boxes Sep 26, 2009

Hi Daniel,

Many thanks for your reply. No, they are not graphics or WordArt as far as I can make out. They seem like normal text boxes. That is what I don't understand. Well, there is a lot I don't understand really!

Help!!!
