Hi,

I would like to use Trados 2014 on Mac, is the Microsoft Office package for Mac useful or does anyone use it without any Microsoft pkg?

Thank you!

I don't use Trados, but there's no reason to install "Office:mac" for use with Trados. If anything, you should install "Office for Windows" on the Dark Side, i.e. the BootCamp partition or virtual machine with Windows you run Trados in.

Cheers,

Hans

Office 2016 for Mac is now available with Office 365.

You will need Parallels Desktop or VMware Fusion or the free Virtual Box and a Windows license to run Studio on a Mac. ▲ Collapse
