Thread: Tag Editor and Power Point 2007

Hi Everyone!
As far as I know Tag Editor and Power Point 2007 are not compatible. Is anybody aware of any latest development that could have overcome this hurdle? Thank you all in advance!

Save it into an older version and work the file with TagEditor. When you finish the translation you can save it back to 2007

With Trados I work with Office 2003, with no problems, and then save files back into the original version...

Any other suggestion / comment?

Thank you Vizconde! The thing is that all text embedded in imagery with the SmartGraphic feature of 2007 (editable in 2007), becomes non-editable in 2003, and it is not picked up by Tag Editor. I will need Tag Editor to open the PPT 2007 directly and to recognize this editable text. Any suggestions?

is there any way you can extract that text to, at least, work it separatedly in other file (to use your TM)? and then put it back in the ppt??

try using SAVE US. That will allow you to save the ppt as HTML or RTF.

That´s a good one!

Hi All ..

I saw this post and i want it to share this comment...

we discover that trados 2007 is compatible with PPT 2007, but not with previews version, you only need to open as "pptx" and not with ".ppt" extension. All text embedded with the SmartGraphic feature of 2007 (editable only in 2007), becomes non-editable in 2003, and it is not picked up by Tag Editor, but if you use trados 2007 and 2007 pptx you don't have any problem.

Next challenge .....

Maybe you can help me with this ....
