Hi everyone,

I have a huge project of 130,000 words which is indeed divided in several files. Whether I try to convert file by file from .docx to .xliff, or I try to convert 10 files on the same time to get 1 .xliff file, Swordfish runs very slowly.

And, from now on, the main problem is that I cannot convert the Xliff back to .docx (and delivery time gets closer!!!). Swordfish has been "thinking" (I have the rainbow circle) for almost 5 hours now and has even not started to convert.


Also, I have tried the conversion on two different computers. The problem remains the same.

Thank you for your precious help in advance.

Best regards,

Before converting back to original format, remove all matches from the XLIFF file (Tasks -> Remove All Matches). That will reduce the file size and help achieve a faster conversion.

Don't work with very large files. In File menu you will find options for splitting your XLIFF files and merging them again after translating.

Thank you very much Rodolfo. I didn't know I could convert files without opening them. I will follow your advise.

Kindest,
