Topic: Alternative CAT tools that work directly with Office files
Poster: AaronArthur
Hello all! This is a bit of a shot in the dark, but I'm looking for something similar to Felix as an alternative CAT tool. I use Trados, but have really enjoyed using Ryan Ginstrom's Felix for the past 10 years. I liked that I didn't have to convert Word/Excel/Powerpoint files into a proprietary format and back again after translating. Does anyone know of any similar CAT tools that allow you to work directly in Office files and register TMs and glossaries? And failing that, does anyone have any idea of how to extract text from Felix FTMs so I can create new TMs and glossaries? Thanks!
