Most modern translation solutions support the common formats for importing and exporting translation memories.
The most commonly supported formats are TMX files (Translation Memory eXchange), Excel files (XLSX), CSV files and the native formats of many CAT tools.
For cross-system exchange, TMX (Translation Memory eXchange) has established itself as the international standard.
As a result, companies benefit from:
- Vendor independence: Translation memories can be exchanged easily between different translation systems.
- Investment protection: Translation data that has already been built up is retained in the long term and can continue to be used.
- Easy migration: Switching to a new translation solution is possible without losing valuable translation knowledge.
