Forum: CAT Tools Technical Help
Topic: Working on projects where your PM has a different CAT tool than yours (i.e. SDL vs Wordfast etc.)

Thank you for starting this thread, which I find really useful. Some issues however seem to have no work-around so far (e.g., no possibility to track changes in Wordfast, although it can already work with sdlxliffs). However, the more they develop CAT-tools, the more interchangeable they become. It was not possible only 2-3 years ago to open a memoQ file in Trados or a Trados file in Wordfast. Hopefully, there comes time when we will be able to link our TMs and termbases to whatever CAT-tool off-line and on-line. I shall definitely follow this thread to watch any new developments in this field:)
