Upgrade and Compatibility Information

SDL Trados Studio Project and Package Compatibility

Projects
Projects in SDL Trados Studio 2011/2011 SP1 and SDL Trados Studio 2011 SP2 are the same format. Projects that were created in SDL Trados Studio 2009 SP3 can be upgraded for use in SDL Trados Studio 2011 SP2. When you open a 2009 SP3 project in SDL Trados Studio 2011 SP2, you are asked if you want the project to be upgraded to the 2011 format. When you upgrade the project, the converted 2011 project is saved in the location of your choice and you can then choose if you want to archive the old 2009 project. If you do not archive the project, it is left in the 2009 project folder and can still be opened in SDL Trados Studio 2009 SP3.

NOTE If you still need to work with users who are using SDL Trados Studio 2009 SP3 and have not upgraded to a version of SDL Trados Studio 2011, you can do this through the use of packages.

Packages
Packages in SDL Trados Studio 2011/2011 SP1 and SDL Trados Studio 2011 SP2 are the same format so you can easily work in a workflow between the two versions. SDL Trados Studio 2011 SP2 supports a project package workflow between any version of SDL Trados Studio 2011 to SDL Trados Studio 2009 SP3 and back. To send packages to a 2009 user from 2011 SP2, you need to select the Project > Create Studio 2009 Project Package option. For more information, refer to the online help in SDL Trados Studio.

Upgrade and Compatibility Information

Translation Memory Compatibility

Software
SDL Trados Studio 2011 SP2 can only connect to SDL TM Server 2011 and SDL TM Server 2009 SP3. SDL Trados Studio 2011 SP2 cannot work with earlier versions of this server.

Server-based Translation Memories

Server-based translation memories that were created in SDL TM Server 2011 and SDL TM Server 2009 SP3 can be used directly in SDL Trados Studio 2011 SP2. Server-based translation memories that were created in SDL TM Server 2009 1.0, SP1 or SP2 can be used in SDL Trados Studio 2011 SP2 but they must first be converted to current SDL TM Server version format. For information on how to upgrade these server-based translation memories, see the SDL Studio GroupShare Installation Guide. Server-based translation memories that were created in SDLX Server, SDL TM Server 2007 or some earlier versions of this product, can also be used in SDL Trados Studio 2011 SP2 but they must first be converted to the current format. To do this, use the Upgrade Translation Memories wizard in SDL Trados Studio. For more information, see the SDL Trados Studio 2011 SP2 Migration Guide.

Local (File-based) Translation Memories

If you have local translation memories from any of the SDL Trados Studio 2009 versions, you can work with them in SDL Trados Studio 2011 SP2. Local translation memories that were created in SDL Trados 2007, SDLX 2007 or earlier versions of these products can be used in SDL Trados Studio 2011 SP2 but they must first be converted to SDL Trados Studio 2011 SP2 format. To do this, use the Upgrade Translation Memories wizard in SDL Trados Studio. For more information, see the SDL Trados Studio 2011 SP2 Migration Guide.

Upgrade and Compatibility Information

MultiTerm Compatibility
Software
SDL Trados Studio 2011 SP2 is only compatible with SDL MultiTerm 2011 SP2 Client and SDL MultiTerm 2009 Client SP4. If you install SDL Trados Studio 2011 SP2 and also have SDL MultiTerm 2011 installed, you must upgrade MultiTerm to the 2011 SP2 version to be able to use both applications in tandem. SDL Trados Studio 2011 SP2 can only connect to SDL MultiTerm 2011 Server and SDL MultiTerm Server 2009 SP3. SDL Trados Studio 2011 SP2 cannot work with earlier versions of this server.

NOTE Depending on which edition of SDL Trados Studio 2011 SP2 you purchased, SDL MultiTerm 2011 SP2 may be included in the purchase. However, it is not installed automatically. If you want to install SDL MultiTerm 2011 SP2, you must run the SDL MultiTerm 2011 SP2 installer. For more information, see the SDL MultiTerm 2011 SP2 Client Installation Guide.

Server-based Termbases
Server-based termbases that were created in SDL MultiTerm Server 2011 and SDL MultiTerm Server 2009 SP3 can be used directly in SDL Trados Studio 2011 SP2. Server-based termbases that were created in SDL MultiTerm Server 2007 and 2009 SP1 or SP2 can be used in SDL Trados Studio 2011 SP2 but they must first be converted to SDL MultiTerm Server 2011 format. To do this, use the SDL MultiTerm Server Upgrade Wizard in the SDL MultiTerm Server Console. For more information, see the SDL MultiTerm 2011 SP2 Online Help.

Local (File-based) Termbases

If you have access to termbases from SDL MultiTerm 2011 SP2 or SDL MultiTerm 2009 SP3/SP4, you can work with them in SDL Trados Studio 2011 SP2. You can search termbases, insert term translations into documents, add new terms to termbases and edit or delete termbase entries. Local termbases that were created in MultiTerm 2009 (1.0, SP1, SP2), SDL MultiTerm 2007 (7.5 and 7.x releases) or MultiTerm iX (version 6.x) can also be used in SDL Trados Studio 2011 SP2 but they must first be converted to SDL MultiTerm 2011 SP2 format. When you select a termbase from a version previous to SDL MultiTerm 2011 or SDL MultiTerm 2009 SP3/SP4 in SDL Trados Studio, you are asked if you want the termbase to be converted to SDL MultiTerm 2011 SP2 format. You must say Yes if you want to use the termbase in SDL Trados Studio.

SDL TRADOS STUDIO 2011 SP2 INSTALLATION GUIDE

1-13

Upgrade and Compatibility Information

When a termbase is converted, the converted termbase file overwrites the original termbase in the same location.

NOTE C Once a termbase has been converted to SDL MultiTerm 2011 SP2 format, it cannot be reverted to an earlier format. C If you want to work with SDL MultiTerm 2009 (1.0, SP1, SP2), SDL MultiTerm 2007 or MultiTerm iX termbases in SDL Trados Studio 2011 SP2 and you also want to be able to open the termbases in the original MultiTerm application, you should create copies of the termbases before you open them in SDL Trados Studio 2011 SP2.

The Microsoft Excel 2000-2003 file filter converts Microsoft Excel 2000-2003 files to Microsoft Excel 2007 documents on the fly and reconverts them back to Microsoft Excel 2000-2003 after translation. This speeds up the conversion for Microsoft Excel 2000-2003 documents significantly. For this file type to work correctly: C On machines with Microsoft Excel 2000-2003 installed, install the Microsoft Office 2007 compatibility pack available from http://www.microsoft.com/downloads. This will ensure that SDL Trados Studio 2011 SP2 can do the on-the-fly conversion. If the compatibility pack is not installed, the previous, slower Microsoft Excel 2000-2003 filter will be used. On machines with Microsoft Excel 2007 installed, you do not need to do anything. The conversion will happen in the background.

Upgrading from an Earlier Version of SDL Trados Studio

You do not have to uninstall an earlier SDL Trados version before installing SDL Trados Studio 2011 SP2.

Installing SDL Trados Studio 2011 SP2

INSTALLING SDL TRADOS STUDIO 2011 SP2

Installing SDL Trados Studio 2011 SP2 involves the following steps: Install SDL Trados Studio 2011 SP2. The installer contains a number of compressed files and the first thing that happens is that the files are decompressed. When the installer files have all been decompressed, you can choose to create your own personalized SDL BeGlobal Community account to access free automated translation services from SDL BeGlobal. You can also sign up from within the Studio application at any time. Next the installation takes place. First SDL Passolo Essential 2011 SP6 and the prerequisites are installed and then SDL Trados Studio 2011 SP2. Once installed, you can start SDL Trados Studio 2011 SP2. The Product Activation dialog box is displayed. Here you can activate your product or choose to use the 30 day trial. The trial license runs SDL Trados Studio in Professional mode for 30 days. At the end of 30 days you must activate your own license. If you do not have a valid license at that time, the software will cease to function. If you have purchased a Freelance, Starter or Express license, you may want to take advantage of the trial license as it will give you access to more functionality than your own license. For more information, see Studio Editions on page 1-6.
