MemoQ comments

MemoQ offers a simple way to add comments with various levels to translations. While translating a text, you can simply select a phrase and hit ‘Ctrl + M’ to insert a comment. A dialogue window is opened then which allows you to add your comments and to select the severity of your comment, varying from ‘Information’ to ‘Error’.
However, when you export your final – clean – document, the comments inserted are hidden my default. That is annoying and confusing. How to get rid of that?

MemoQ export comments

Although it seems otherwise MemoQ can still export the comments in the clean version. In order to do that you should select this feature in the software’s settings.
Here’s how to do that:

1. Click the gear icon in the left corner to open the options menu

2. In the dialogue window, click Miscellaneous

3. You can now select the kind of comments you want MemoQ to export.
Select Export all types of comments to export all comments.

4. MemoQ will now export the comments into the final document.

5. Done!
