I am having difficulties with the TMX > TXT conversion tool which I have successfully used on a number of occasions in the past.

I downloaded the tool which is available in the Wordfast Yahoo Groups. I am able to convert the TMX file to a txt. file but when I try to import the txt. file into Wordfast, Wordfast tells me it is not a Wordfast file.

There may be something in the TMX file that Wordfast doesn't like. Try running the TMX file through one of my scripts, here:

Did you try the newer converter (WfConverter.exe) by the same author? You can find a link to it here:

WF2TMX is what you need:

TXT in Unicode, as destination file

TMX as UTF-8, as destination file

If you have mish-mash in an endoding, use some tool for fixing it, or text editor and F-R feature.

Wordfast can select + convert into TXT the TMX in Unicode.
