Is there a free XLIFF viewer that has these features? Thread poster: Artem Vakhitov

Is there a free XLIFF viewer for Windows that has these features: * Is distributed as a simple Windows executable (unlike Swordfish) * Opens the file directly—no need to create a project (unlike Heartsome) * Has a grid Source/Target layout like Trados Studio and others (unlike Qt Linquist) * Displays the entire text of a segment right in the grid and not elsewhere (unlike POEdit) * Displays the statistics?

(unlike POEdit) POEdit has the first three features and is kind of acceptable, but I'd like to have the last two ones, too. I need this to show the current work progress to a customer (and have an easy reference for discussions) without uploading the file to an online CAT which is not desirable at this stage. ▲ Collapse | | | Easier solution | Dec 1, 2021 |
On a second thought, it looks like I'm overcomplicating things. I can just export the file for bilingual review as a Word document. | | | Samuel Murray Netherlands Local time: 14:35 Member (2006) English to Afrikaans + ...

It's just a viewer, and it doesn't show segment statuses. I use it regularly to export XLIFF files to TMX or an HTML table or to quickly check the contents of a file. It sometimes hijacks the file association for a while (if I've opened an SDLXLIFF file in Disfr, the next time I double-click an SDLXLIFF file it will want to open in Disfr). This doesn't bother me much since I rarely open XLIFF files by double-clicking them -- I tend to open them from within the application that I want to open them, which isn't always the same application. It doesn't display statistics.

Thank you Samuel! This looks like the best tool of all I have tried. Simple, no-nonsense, easy to use. For some reason, it doesn't show up in a generic Google search.

[Edited at 2021-12-01 19:38 GMT] Thanks Samuel, nice simple tool. It looks like the compare function is still not working yet, or have you found a way to compare two xliffs? | | | a way to compare two xliffs | Dec 6, 2021 |

Ukrainian guys from Prothemos developed a nice and freeware compare tool back then in 2013, but later on they decided to deprecate it in favor of a web-based version.

Hi Samuel, Thank you so much, I have been looking for such a tool for years. Just something simple to display an XML file in a table. It also works with TMX as you mentioned.
