I mostly work with Italian agencies and for the last 4-5 weeks they have been totally silent. At first, I just expected it to be the normal silence after the summer holidays in August, Sep
Since they cannot compromize quality, even the Indian agencies will have to look for their translators on the same market where the US/UK law firms were getting theirs. And why on earth sh

In my opinion you should just deliver the translation memory in the TMX format, which Trados recognizes. If the agency has a need to split the TM into 5 different formats I think they sh
