Check for fuzzy matches that were confirmed without changes
Fuzzy matches are translation suggestions from similar segments, which usually

From Service Pack 12, as part of the format check, you can find out whether any such
translation suggestions have been accidentally
confirmed without being changed.
▲ Displayed in interactive quality assurance

with ease via “File navigation"

Additional functions for TM maintenance
Your translation memory is a valuable asset and contains the work that has gone
into many translation jobs.
With Service Pack 12, you have even more options for maintaining reference material
and increasing its value for future translation projects:
▲ Select relevant segments in the hit list even
more easily and conveniently
▲ Empty segments in the filtered reference
material (delete segment content in the
source and/or target language)
▲ Navigate and search/replace in the filtered
reference material

▲ Find segments that are identical in content
using the “Whole segments only" optionTranslation memory (2/2):
Additional options for TMX export
Using the TMX interface, you import translation memories from other systems into
Transit, or export Transit language pairs for use in other systems.
From Service Pack 12, you can also define how internal repetitions are exported
during TMX export.
▲ Using this option, Transit exports identical segments
(“internal repetitions”) just once, provided that they
have been translated in the same way
▲ All translation variants are exported if identical
source-language segments have been translated
differently
▲ Supported for all TMX export functions (export of
the current project, individual language pairs,
