What is a .TTX file?
A .TTX file is a special kind of document that is made using Trados translation software. This software helps people translate texts from one language to another. The .TTX file keeps all the translated text, but it also has special codes, called tags, that help keep the text looking right. These tags make sure that things like bold or italic words, and the structure of the document, like paragraphs and headings, stay the same after the translation.
You can make a .TTX file from many different types of documents. Some of these include web pages (.HTML), server-side scripts (.JSP, .ASP), stylesheets (.XSL), data files (.XML, .SGML), rich text format documents (.RTF), and Word documents (.DOC). This means that a lot of different documents can be translated and saved as .TTX files.
To open a .TTX file, you usually need SDL Trados TagEditor, which is the program that is used to create and edit these files. However, if you just want to view a .TTX file and not change it, you can also use a web browser with a special add-on called the TRADOStag Viewer plug-in. This plug-in lets you see the translated document in your web browser, which can be really handy.
In summary, .TTX files are used for keeping translated texts along with their formatting and structure. They are mainly opened and edited with SDL Trados TagEditor, but you can also view them in a web browser if you have the right plug-in.
