How do CAT tools handle previews?
Some CAT tools provide a preview for the source document, some for the target document and some both for the source and target document.
Some CAT tools offer an HTML preview, others a PDF or Ms Word preview–and one CAT tool offers a WYSIWYG preview in the translation editors.
Here you can download the source document and some hi-res screenshots that I made.
I'll add some comments later. [/quote]
I tried the file you uploaded, pizza maker.docx, in Trados Studio, but there is something weird going on with it. The previewer doesn't really work with it, which never happens to me in Studio these days. How did you create it? I generally convert PDFs to .docx using ABBYY FineReader 15, and have never had a problem generating previews with these files.
