DOCUMENT VERSION
The LegisWrite version of the document should always be checked before sent and should
be similar to the original.
How?
– File – Properties – Custom – Created with
Tips and tricks
– Avoid using older versions of documents as basis for your translation. If – for
some reason – you really need to use an earlier version of the requested document,
make a copy of the text without the last paragraph mark and paste this into the
translation created from the original.
1. LINKED STYLES
A linked style is a paragraph style applied to character(s). Linked styles are not permitted
in any document (original and translations). Planning refuses all originals with linked
styles.
How?
– Be careful to keep all the styles from the original. Never apply styles to
characters.
– Never change styles in your translation and never create new styles.
Tips and tricks
– Be careful, you can easily create linked style in the translation, if you apply a
style when just a letter/word is accidentally selected!
– LW 5.8 quality check detects linked styles but to correct them you have to save
and close the document and then re-open it in order to get the linked styles error
message (pop-up) where you can click "yes".
– For Non-LW documents check manually: no linked styles (save and re-open the
document).
Check-list for outgoing translations 3/24
2. TRACK CHANGES
Track change option OFF. No track changes and no comments.
F Use the Reviewing toolbar
How?
– Track change option OFF:
The Track Changes button off (not bordered) or TRK in status bar off (in grey)
– No track changes and no comments
Use the Next button to see if there are track changes and/or comments
Use the Accept Change/Reject Change buttons to accept or reject changes and
delete comments (one by one or all at once)
– Hyperlinks
To translate the text displayed: directly in the text
To modify the link: right-click / Edit Hyperlink and modify in the address field
and OK.
To delete the link: right-click / Remove Hyperlink.
Tips and tricks
– Details on the reviewing toolbar in annex 1, page 19.
Check-list for outgoing translations 4/24
3. CLEANUP
Cleanup should be done, unless explicitly requested otherwise. Check also for hidden text
such as TWB tags.
How?
– To display the hidden text (i.e. to see if the cleanup has been done):
Click on Show/Hide button in the standard toolbar.
Tips and tricks
– To delete tags: menu Trados / Tag Protection on/off.
– To find hidden text, use the Find function:
Edit / Find / More / select Font in the Format drop-down list and tick Hidden;
Click on Find Next in the Find window.
– To unhide "hidden" text, use the Replace function:
set in the field Replace with, the font format "Not hidden";
then use the buttons "Find Next" and "Replace" (or "Replace all").
– To delete "hidden" text, use the Replace function as well:
but do not set anything in the field Replace with (leave it empty and without
formatting).
then use the buttons "Find Next" and "Replace" (or "Replace all").
4. NO COLOUR OR HIGHLIGHTING
No colour or highlighting (unless in ORI document). No Markers.
How?
– Check that no colours are left in the text and in the footnotes area (Normal view:
View – Footnotes or switch to View->Print Layout).
– Select text and apply the font colour "automatic".
– Attention, "Marker" formatted text will also lose the colour and errors will be
found in the DQC (Document Quality Check). But this can easily be repaired with
the tool Repair highlighted DQC errors (choose "Remove marker style" as
solution).
Check-list for outgoing translations 5/24
5. TARGET LANGUAGE CODE
Printed on top of first page and left and right in the footer. It should reflect the language
of the document.
How?
– To change the target language code:
LegisWrite / Utilities / Change language.
J If the language code does not exist in the list, just type the code with capital
letters.
– To verify if the language code is correct in the footer: View / Header&Footer /
Switch between Header and Footer (or use the Print Layout view).
Tips and tricks
– Do NOT change the language code manually! A manual change can generate a
DQC error "normal style has invalid language setting".
6. SPELLING
Spelling and grammar checks have to be used cautiously: false errors are frequently
reported!
How?
– To launch : Tools - Spelling and Grammar (or F7).
Tips and tricks
– Before launching the spell-checker: Tools / Language / Set language (NOT
necessary if the code target language has been set correctly in the legislative
documents).
– Do NOT check Detect language automatically (does not work properly).
– If you wish to re-launch the spelling without having to close and re-open the
document: Tools / Options / Spelling & Grammar / Recheck Document (bottom
right).
7. EVERYTHING HAS BEEN TRANSLATED
Everything should be translated – no other language present (unless functional, e.g.
publication titles).
Check-list for outgoing translations 6/24
How?
– Scroll through the document
– Spell check can help you detect non-translated parts
8. TITLES AND HEADINGS
All titles and headings should be translated and the numbering should be correct (TWB
cleanup can sometimes modify the numbering).
How?
– To display the titles and headings only:
See in TOC (details in point 14, page 13)
Or Menu View / Document map
Or Menu View / Outline. A specific toolbar is available in which you can
specify the title levels to be displayed.
– To correct heading numbering errors:
Repair highlighted DQC errors tool (if modified styles after DQC)
Or manually reapply the style (or Ctrl+Q) and if needed, right-click on the title
number and choose Restart Numbering or Continue Numbering
In case it is a "Manual heading", the wrong numbering should be corrected
manually
Check-list for outgoing translations 7/24
9.1. NUMBER OF PARAGRAPHS AND ARTICLES
Number of paragraphs and articles in ORI and TRA should be the same. Use Compare
function in LegisWrite menu and browse through document.
How?
– Use the Compare function in LegisWrite.
Tips and tricks
– When doing the comparison, if nothing happens or error ”not a valid legiswrite
document” or a run-time error is displayed:
Launch the structure check and click YES to see if the structure (type of
document) is the same in the TRA as in the ORI;
Check the template used to create the documents in Tools / Templates and Add
Ins
If the template of the TRA is Normal or comint.dot instead of com.dot (or vice
versa): copy the text of the TRA (without last paragraph mark) and paste it into
a copy of the original (and do not forget to rename this new document into
TRA before uploading it on the eXtra Portal!)
– Presence of track changes can also be a cause of run-time error!
– To find out the number of paragraphs, articles, etc., you can also use the menu
File / Properties / Statistics for each document (ORI and TRA).
Check-list for outgoing translations 8/24
9.2. PAGE BREAKS
Pages should be numbered. No superfluous page breaks.
How?
– To check the page numbering and breaks: View / Print Layout or Print Preview
– To correct the page numbering: use the functions Print or Print Preview or
Prepare for distribution that will systematically align page numbering on the
rules established with the Secretariat General.
– To check the page breaks: compare ORI and TRA printed versions or use the
Side by Side word function (details below).
Tips and tricks
– Reminder about the page numbering:
the cover page (page de garde) is never numbered,
the front page (page de couverture) is numbered with the first number in the
series, but the number is not printed,
the first page of text (première page de texte) is numbered with the next
number in the series.
– The correct numbering of pages is based on the use of sections. NEVER delete
a section break. To re-insert a deleted section break, put the cursor at the right
place, Insert / Break / Section break / Next page.
– Side by Side function
Check that Windows in Taskbar is not ticked in Tools / Options / View
Open ORI and TRA
Menu Window / Compare Side by Side
Following your preferences, you can use the Print Layout View and specify
Page Width or Text Width in the Zoom window
The scrolling is synchronised
Check-list for outgoing translations 9/24
10. FOOTNOTES
Same number of footnotes as in ORI. LW footnotes start with a TAB and should be in font
Times New Roman, size 10 (style: footnote text). In some languages (e.g. Finno-Ugric),
the sequence order of footnotes relating to the same sentence or title may vary.
How?
– To display the footnotes in Normal View: View / Footnotes
Tips and tricks
– LW 5.8 quality check detects footnotes without a TAB and inserts the missing
TAB
– All footnote errors can be corrected automatically using the Repair Tool, except
one that still need to be corrected manually: manual footnote number in the
footnote text (further details in the LW 5.8 user guide).
11. FIGURES
References to legislation, dates, amounts, percentages in plain text and in tables
(including decimal point or commas).
How?
– Unless you have a special macro or other tool for this purpose, you must simply use
caution to avoid errors and double-check before uploading your translation.
Check-list for outgoing translations 10/24
12. PICTURES AND TABLES
LegisWrite documents should NOT contain embedded objects. All charts/pictures should
be visible in Normal view as well, and thus should NOT be "Floating".
How?
– To verify if there are embedded objects
Launch the DQC
Tick only Embedded objects in the DQC options window
– To convert the embedded objects to picture
Select the embedded object
Right-click / Cut and then menu Edit / Paste Special / Picture (Enhanced
Metafile)
OR Ctrl+Shift+F9
– To search for graphics, use Select Browse Object
Tips and tricks
– To know if an object is embedded or not, right-click the object:
If Picture Object and Format
Object appear in the menu, it is an
embedded object
= INCORRECT
If Edit Picture and Format Picture
appear in the menu, it is NOT
an embedded object,
it is a picture = CORRECT
– Important reminder − If graph, table or picture contain some text and if they are
pasted as a picture in the ORI, they should be translated in Excel or PowerPoint
file (they should be provided separately by requester) then pasted in Word. Do not
translate the picture directly: it will be a mess!
In Excel, select the graph and menu Edit / Copy
(or Shift + Edit /Copy Picture)
In Word, menu Edit / Paste special / Picture Enhanced metafile
(or Ctrl+V = pasted as picture by default)
Check-list for outgoing translations 11/24
– All charts/pictures should be visible in Normal view as well, and thus they should
NOT be "Floating" but should be "In line with text".
This is checked by the Planning in the originals.
Right-click on the object / Format picture / Layout and then click In line with
text style, and OK.
Or click on the picture to see if it is floating or not
– if circles, the picture is floating / In front of text = incorrect
– if squares, the picture is In line with text = correct
Picture is ”in front of
text” = incorrect
Picture is ”in front of
text” = incorrect
Picture is ”In line with
text = correct
Picture is ”In line with
text = correct
– Other special floating objects cases are described in annex 3, page 20.
– LW 5.8 quality check detects and repairs floating pictures and embedded objects
13. COMPLIANCE WITH INSTRUCTIONS
Customer instructions must be followed. Always check the instructions and remarks on
the Information Sheet!
How?

Check-list for outgoing translations 13/24
14. TABLE OF CONTENTS
The creation or update of the TOC should be done by using the LegisWrite function.
How?
– To verify if the current TOC is a LegisWrite one, click in it:
If the TOC is highlighted in grey, it is NOT a correct one (it is a Word TOC
inserted via the menu Insert / Reference / Index and Tables). In this case, it
should be deleted.
If the TOC is in plain text, it is correct.
N.B.: it can be edited to correspond to the ORI.
– To create/update a LegisWrite TOC: click on the ToC button (or Ctrl+Shift+C
or Menu Legiswrite / Formatting), and Yes in the next window.
Tips and tricks
– Text in TOC should preferably be in plain letters and NOT bold/italic. If it is the
case, it means that the style of the headings is wrong in the text as well (direct
formatting or whatever):
Correct the headings formatting in the text (reapply the style, or use
Ctrl+spacebar to remove direct formatting…);
Refresh the TOC.
– If there is a table of figures, it should be inserted with the Word
function (as it not available in LegisWrite): Insert / Reference /
Index ant Tables / Table of figures. To update it, simply click in
it and choose Update field in the contextual menu.
Check-list for outgoing translations 14/24
15. UPDATE DOCUMENT
How?
– To update the cover page, click Update Document
– For Non-LW documents with a LW cover page check manually: the cover page is
translated, no language code except on the first page
– NEVER attempt to edit the cover page manually, e.g. by inserting text fields or
similar means.
Check-list for outgoing translations 15/24
16.1. STRUCTURE CHECK
No structure check errors. If changes were made after a structure check, check again if
paragraph and heading numbers are still correct (LegisWrite - Compare).
How?
– Launch structure check from LegisWrite menu or toolbar
View the document structure (see tips and tricks on page 7 if type of
document is not the same for TRA and ORI).
– To correct
Always compare the translation to the original (same styles/structure) by using
Windows / Arrange All or Compare Side by Side
Apply the right styles
Tips and tricks
– Planning always checks that the original has been created with the latest
LegisWrite version (currently 5.8).
– Specific printing options are available in menu LegisWrite / Print utilities.
– If the LegisWrite menu is available but NOT the LegisWrite toolbar, re-attach the
right template:
Tools / Templates and Add-ins / Attach
Browse to // Documents and Settings / All users / Templates
Select the right template (com.dot or comint.dot) / Open and OK.
This problem is corrected automatically in LegisWrite version 5.8. Just close
and reopen the document and the correct template is attached.
Check-list for outgoing translations 16/24
16.2. QUALITY CHECK
No quality check errors. If changes were made after a Quality check, check again if
paragraph and heading numbers are still correct (LegisWrite - Compare).
How?
– Launch quality check from LegisWrite menu or toolbar.
– To correct errors: use the new repair tool Repair Highlighted DQC Errors
(automatic or interactive way) for most of the errors. Three types of mistakes
cannot be managed by the tool and will still need to be corrected manually.
See full explanation in the LW 5.8 user guide (available on eXtra Portal).
Tips and tricks
– To avoid errors in the numbering of lists, we recommend you to convert the "list
number" styles applied to paragraphs to "point" styles, especially in long
documents, by using the new conversion tool. Conversion should be done before
starting to translate. (See further details in the annex on page 17.)
– Help can be accessed clicking on link + Ctrl in comment window.
– In Regional setting (Start / Control Panel), set preferably the comma as list
separator (not space and not semi-colon) to avoid style corruption when using
TWB.
– To see if there is direct formatting, use menu Format / Reveal formatting
– Maximum size of document is 4 MB.

Annex 1
Commands for lists
(See further details in the LW 5.8 user guide.)
LegisWrite menu: "List" with three sub commands: "Convert List", "Renumber List" and
a new item "Renumber articles".
(1) The Convert List command automatically changes the "List number" style
(automatic numbering) applied to paragraphs to "Point" style (manual
numbering).
The advantage is that after conversion you can use other characters and number
formats for lists. Moreover, you will avoid the problems of damaged numbering,
which are occasionally caused by TWB cleanup.
You can go through the document to check whether or not there are List
Number styles present
F Select the part of the text that should be converted
(or all with Ctrl + A)
F In menu LegisWrite – Lists – Convert List
(2) The Renumber List command changes the numbering scheme of a manual
numbered list (Point styles) or renumbers it correctly when new paragraphs are
added. The big advantage is that you don't have to manually renumber paragraphs
any more where the style "Point" is used.
F Select the entire list to be renumbered (Point style)
F Choose the list you want: a list of "Number", "Bullet" or "Dash".
F For a numbered list, fill in the "Number style" field: ("1"; or "i.",…). You
also have to define the format: "(x)" or "x)". Then fill in the "Start at" field
F Click on [<OK>]
A – "Number", "Bullet" or "Dash".
You can define if you want to (re) number these paragraphs with number, bullet or dash
B - Number Style
If number is selected, you have to specify the type of character
C - Number Format
What will be the format of the numbering, e.g. with or without brackets, ...
D - Start at...
To specify the first numbering element, e.g. start at 5 (instead of 1) or with the letter b, ...
(3) Article numbers are inserted manually. The LegisWrite function "Renumber
Articles" allows changing the number of a series of articles in one go. This is
helpful in case a new article has to be inserted in the middle of the existing ones.
Check-list for outgoing translations 18/24
F To renumber all the articles automatically after you've created them you can
go into the Legiswrite menu, choose "Lists" and "Renumber articles".
Recommendation
If you get a long document using ”list number” styles, then consider converting
these using the List Conversion Tool. Conversion should be done before starting
to translate.

Floating objects special cases
Case 1 : in this example, the text box is linked to a picture
Proceed as follows to correct :
(1) Right-click on text box / Format text box
(2) Text box tab / Convert to frame (adaptations can still be made)
(3) Cut frame
(4) Edit – Paste Special – Picture (enhanced metafile)
(5) Use the Crop button to adapt size

(7) Delete paragraph mark beside "text box" to align the 2 pictures
OR (easiest way)
(1) In the Excel file, sent together with the request for translation, hold down SHIFT
while clicking first on the text box, next on the graphic and finally on the Edit
menu –> Copy as picture
(2) In Word simply paste
Check-list for outgoing translations 21/24
Case 2 : drawing canvas
If a graphic is created in Word as a DRAWING CANVAS it can well be "In line with
text" but still not visible in normal view.
The drawing canvas should be converted to a picture (but edit it before conversion!):
(1) Select the object / right-click / Cut
(2) Edit – Paste Special – Picture (Enhanced metafile)
F Requester should send the Word document used to create the picture.
Check-list for outgoing translations 22/24
Annex 4
Manual correction of quality errors
Modified margins
Modified margins in a paragraph are very often due to formatting changes made after the style has
been applied (direct formatting). You can see whether there is any direct formatting in the
paragraph by using the task pane "Reveal Formatting" (SHIFT+F1).
How to correct:
Place the mouse cursor in the paragraph and use the keyboard shortcut CTRL+Q.
Unknown fonts
Unknown fonts in a paragraph are due the use of others fonts than "Times New Roman" or
"Arial". These two fonts are the only fonts allowed in any official document.
How to correct:
Select the faulty part and use the shortcut CTRL+ SPACE BAR.
Superfluous white spaces
Superfluous white spaces are spaces like multiple spaces or tabulators between words, empty
spaces at the beginning of a paragraph or footnotes, or empty paragraphs. Superfluous white
spaces cannot be left in any official document.
How to correct:
Select the superfluous space and delete it.
Embedded objects
Embedded objects are objects coming from another Office application and "embedded" into the
document. For instance you can insert an Excel graph into a word document and even have a link
between the Excel data source file and the graph in your Word document. Embedded objects are
not accepted in any official document.
How to correct:
Select object and Ctrl + Shift + F9.
Document versions
In Word it's technically possible to save multiple versions of a document into the same file.
Several document versions cannot be left in any official document.
How to correct
Open the document, go into "File", "Version" and delete the superfluous versions (only keep one,
usually the last one).
Unknown styles
Unknown styles are styles which do not belong to the LegisWrite style list (styles created by the
user or imported during a copy-paste between a LegisWrite document and a "normal" Word
document). Unknown styles cannot be left in any official document.
How to correct:
Change the style of the paragraph to a LegisWrite style.
Odd & even section breaks
Odd/even section break inserts a section break and starts the new section on the next odd-
numbered or even-numbered page. This type of section breaks is not accepted in any official
document.
How to correct:
Simply do a "Print preview" ("File", "Print preview").
Check-list for outgoing translations 23/24
Existence of macros
In Word, a macro is a small program created in Visual Basic (VBA) which lets you automate
tasks or perform complex actions in a document. Macros are not allowed in any official
document.
How to correct:
Tools | Macros | Delete or report to DGT when uploading your translation.
Modified numbering
Modified numbering concerns paragraphs in your document where the automatic numbering
given by the LegisWrite style has been modified (by the user). A classical case would be a
paragraph with a style that gives automatic numbering with numbers, where the number has been
either replaced by a letter or simply deleted. This is not allowed in any official document.
How to correct:
Place your mouse cursor in the paragraph and use the shortcut CTRL + Q.
Modified styles
Modified styles are LegisWrite styles which have had their formatting characteristics modified.
How to correct:
Use the automatic repair tool. Don't try to repair modified styles manually.
Modified markers
Modified markers are "Marker" styles modified for the font colour setting.
The marker character style is a style used for instance to show placeholders in your text where
you have to add missing entries (blue bracket in text).
How to correct:
Select the error and use the shortcut CTRL + SPACE BAR.
Invalid footnotes
The formatting or the footnote construction does not comply with the LegisWrite standard.
How to correct:
A manual correction solution could always be to create a new footnote (using the Insert Footnote
button in the LegisWrite toolbar), then copy paste your footnote contents in it and delete the old
one.
But depending on the error, it could just be a question of re-applying the needed style, removing
the extra space or adding it to be sure to have the structure of the footnote based on "footnote
number and a tabulation followed by the text".
