Up until now, the common workaround for Trados Studio was to change the file extension from .mxliff to .xliff. However, MXLIFF files use many attributes that other tools do not understand like m:score or m:locked (all Memsource specific attributes start with an m:)

In addition, we’re introducing support for the Memsource file type (MXLIFF) in both Trados Studio and Trados Live. With this file type, users will be able to translate in Trados as usual and feel confident that when they reimport the file back into Memsource all the metadata in the translatable file, such as translation status’s and split and merged segments, will be retained. Enabling translators to accept any job from any work giver in their supply chain has always been at the heart of what we do, so we’re very proud to announce this new compatibility.
