4.1Why does my original in-line formatting not get exactly applied to my translation?

Example : "This sentence is an example of in-line formatting" (in this instance sentence, example, in-line and formatting are examples of in-line formatting) This is a known issue with the translation engine. You should check your translated text and post edit it, applying the formatting as required

4.2  Why are my Word text fields in my document (e.g. title, author, creation date) not retaining their translations?

This is the correct behaviour and not a defect. Word properties are not translated, so on update these fields revert back to their original values.

4.3  Why does text contained in a text box not get translated?

Text boxes are seen as drawing objects in MS word and therefore are not passed to the Translation engine for translation. You should remove your text from within the text box and place it directly into the document.
