I tried to create a solution that extracted the content of target segments from Wordfast Anywhere and paste it in an opened Ms Word document, for further processing.
Something like this solution with Keyboard Maestro (Mac).

Why?
Apr 25, 2022
What's the goal of this method?
In Wordfast Anywhere if you download the OFRT you will get a similar bilingual table (Word document). What you translate in it can be used to update your txlf then. Or you can just select the target column and copy-paste it to get the same result as what you're doing here (probably faster too).
What do you wish to do with the target table?

What is OFRT?
Aim: Further processing
Where do I find the option to download a txlf?
Thank you in advance!

Ok, Select your file (tick), go to the File tab, then click download. A list of options appears. _Bilingual will give you the txlf _Offline Review Doc will give you the Word with table (used to be called OFRT, now "offline review doc").
Hope this helps,
Philippe

Ah, there it's hidden.
Many thanks, as always.
BTW: I just wanted to have a framework to extract text from web-based grid-based apps. Wfa was the lucky guinea pig.
