Note: Import and export paths are relative paths.

Note: You can drag multiple files of any supported file format in the Drag documents field. Multiple files can be selected in new browsers. Old browsers do not support this, only one file at a time.

Note: You can also add a zip file holding translatables and TMs.

If you do not want to use the default import filter for your documents, move the cursor in the Ops field for your file. The Delete and Edit icons appear. Click the Edit icon next to a document (). You can now change the filter configuration for your document. You can change it again. In the Filter and Configuration, the Edit icon will also appear. Click the icon to change your filter configuration again. You cannot make direct modifications, you can only select an existing filter configuration on the memoQ server.

If you added a TMX file and want to translate it instead of using as a reference TM, click the Edit icon () in the Import as column, and select Import as document from the list, then click Save.

In the New documents section, choose the document options:

  • Create preview check box: This check box is activated by default. Team members can see the real-time preview of the documents they are working on. However, if you are concerned about the time it takes to download the documents, you might want to turn off this option. Users will have to download a smaller amount of data: they will be able to access the contents of the project more quickly. On the other hand, they will not be see the real-time preview, which might be crucial in certain projects.
  • Record version history check box: Check this check box to track the history of documents and segments in the project. Whenever a change is made to a segment, memoQ records the earlier version, so that you can view the changes, or even to revert to an earlier version. In addition, you can tag your project at a specific time, so that memoQ can always show how the project looked like at the time it was tagged.
  • Import embedded objects check box: Check this check box to import embedded objects like Visio graphics or Excel files embedded in a DOCX file.
  • Import embedded images check box: Check this check box to import images that have translatable text. memoQ will extract these texts and imports them as separate file.

    Note: Currently, you cannot connect your project to Language Terminal when you create your project in the web browser. You can later on connect your project to Language Terminal: open the project in memoQ, go to Overview and click the Create project entry in Language Terminal link.

Click Next. memoQWeb tries to detect your source and target language, and then proceeds to select a project template for your project.
