Dear colleagues,

An agency gave me a file to translate (urgently !) which is essentially a strange XML (XSL ? XML-stylesheet ?) file.
I would like to translate it in OmegaT or SDL Trados 2007.

If nothing else works, I might be able to write a custom file filter for this, but I suspect that it is actually a well-known format that I am not familiar with.

The header of the file is shown here (I wasn't able to paste tags in this message):

The agency says that they don't have anything else, so I have to find a solution with the tools I have.

Any idea ?
Thank you /very much/ for your help.

Dear Michael,

If you like, you can send me the XML in private. I will check and let you know.

Kind regards,

Thanks ! Dec 22, 2012

Hello Yasmin,

Thank you very much for your offer to help.
Unfortunately the document is confidential and the agency would not be happy if I sent it.

However I can send portions of it that do not contain sensitive information.

M.
