MemoQ 4.X, even though an important update from the Kilgray team, will feel very familiar to MemoQ 3.X users. The main difference will be the exchange format between the Project Manager and the freelancer. .xpr files will be replaced .mqout files, which among other improvements will allow the user to update the project without having to create a new one. The delivery and exchange will remain in .mbd files, as in the past.
Below we will explain how to import a .mqout file in MemoQ 4.X.
1. Click on Import Handoff Package
2. A dialog will appear with your name and your task. Confirm the import path by clicking OK as shown below:
You can see your initial and last name as well as your role on this project in the project.
If you will be editing the screen will look more like the following:
3. As in MemoQ 3.X you will have a Translations tab that will contain all files to be translated for a specific project. You just need to click on the file that you wish to work on to start the translation or edit.
Project View - Translator Finish
Remember to always go to the Settings tab and put your initial and last name in the Created By field.
The delivery of file will continue to be through .mdb files created by clicking on Export Bilingual / MemoQ bilingual Documents.
In this link you will find a test project so that you can test the import process in MemoQ.
Let us know if you have any questions and we hope you will have a successful migration.
