Hi guys,
I received a project form my client in ".txlf" format and was told that to get the new files to work, I need to add "*.txlf;" to the beginning of the list of wildcard file extension types I have under "XLIFF" in my File Settings/Project Template.
Now, I even cannot import the files with .txlf extension into Memoq, as Memoq cannot see those files although there in my folder.
I tried adding it in "Filter configurations" but it doesn't work, probably... See more Hi guys,

I tried adding it in "Filter configurations" but it doesn't work, probably because there isn't an XLIFF filter therein.
How to do it?
Looking forward, ▲ Collapse

1. Which version of MemoQ are you using?
2. Are you sure the client's instructions are for setting up a filter in MemoQ?
(I'm not a regular MemoQ user, but I have MemoQ installed and I tried some googling to get to the bottom of this, but I'm as baffled as you are. One can add a new XLIFF filter for TXLF files by clicking the "Resources" button at the very top left of MemoQ (the icon looks like a file-o-fax), and then selecting "Filter configurations" and then "Create New", but I'm stumped because there's nowhere where you can tell MemoQ to use the file extension ".txlf" for that filter.)

| It works fine | Jan 27, 2019 |
I have just checked and it works fine in memoQ 8.7.6.
The procedure is as follows:
New Project → Import with options → Select "All files" in the drop-down menu of the File Explorer → Select a txlf file to import → Click "Open" → Select XLIFF filter from the drop-down menu → Click OK → Click Finish.
The file gets imported with all the tags displayed properly.

主题发起人 | No txlf in drop down menu | Jan 27, 2019 |
Thanks you guys,
Andriy,
I use 2014 R2 version.
But there is no txlf file available in the drop down menu. My Memoq doesn’t recognize this format and unable to see the txlf files for some reason.
Any further idea?

Of course there isn't. However, a txlf file is just an xliff file, the fact that can be proved by opening this kind of file with a text editor. You will see the following in the header: ?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"? xliff version="1.2" xmlns="urn:oasis:names:tc:xliff:document:1.2" xmlns:gs4tr="http://www.gs4tr.org/schema/xliff-ext"
So, use "Import with options", select "All files" in the drop-down menu of the file explorer (not "All supported files") so you can see all the files available in the file explorer window, select and open your txlf file and select XLIFF filter in the drop-down menu of the filters and click OK and then Finish.

Does anyone else have issues when exporting txlf files with lots of tags? Usually files are not recognized by other CATs, like WF...

| XLIFF filter no longer consistent with the latest MemoQ | May 10, 2021 |
The XLIFF filter no longer works every time on my new computer with the latest MemoQ. Sometimes it works, other times it doesn't. Does anyone know how to go about this?
Anyone else facing this same problem? Thanks.

4 years later, and your solution is still relevant! Thank you for this suggestion! I had gone into panic mode because the client is not available to send a more "friendly" file and the deadline is the morning. You are a savior!

I tried this solution today with memoQ 10.2.17.
It worked just fine. Thank you very much for sharing.
