  • Translating in the editor (handling tags, formatting, TM and TB hits)
  • Exporting your translation to two-column format for final proofreading and/or Spellchecking in Word
  • Reimporting your revised translation into your memoQ project, where it gets updated automatically
  • Spellchecking your translation
  • Running a QA check (Quality Assurance) and resolving any errors
  • Delivering your project
