Cumulative Update 8 for SDL Trados Studio 2017 SR1 (Build 14.1.6413.8, Released on 13 November 2017)
Trados Studio 2017 SR1 Cumulative Update 8 addresses the following issues:
Trados Studio Application
This release features full compatibility with SDL Trados GroupShare 2017 SR1 whose release will be announced separately. This means, among other enhancements, that the upLIFT Match Repair and the upLIFT Fragment Match features are now also available for server-based translation memories. Earlier releases of SDL Trados Studio 2017 and SDL Trados Studio 2015 can also be used to connect to server-based TMs in SDL Trados GroupShare 2017 SR1, but upLIFT functionality will not be available for these earlier versions.
Because the changes made to word tokenization for Asian languages can impact workflows and word counting invoiced to translation service buyers, there is now a new option in the project creation wizard to Use word-based tokenization for Asian source languages. This is not selected by default, so the old way of counting characters is enabled unless you change this.
Fixed inconsistencies in character count and word count for character-based (Asian) languages.
Added support for dictionaries in the SDL Language Cloud Machine Translation provider. Besides translation engines, users can now configure and use dictionaries from their Language Cloud account. By design, this functionality works for baseline, trained and industry engines, but not for AdaptiveMT engines, where terminology changes are applied through post-editing results and the engine adapting to that terminology over time.
Enhanced the AutoUpdate user experience:
the settings for AutoUpdate in the Trados Studio are now more straightforward and there is a new option to download updates automatically
there is now a new notifications area for broadcasting news regarding the availability of new updates
this new functionality will replace the previous cumulative update flow for the next cumulative update after this one.
The SDLXLIFF Converter for Microsoft Office plugin used to throw an error message when attempting to convert a file. This is now fixed.
When using the QuickInsert feature, the QuickTagList button is not enabled error was shown. This is now fixed.

Log files for upgrading translation memories could not be deleted while Trados Studio was running. This is now fixed.
Changed the order of the terminology provider list so that the Language Cloud Terminology provider is now in the third position.
If the server TM list contained several thousand entries, the list could sometimes not be retrieved in Trados Studio. This is now fixed.
Fixed issue with file-based translation memory permissions that allowed a guest or translator user to open the file-based TM for editing in TM Maintenance view.
Fixed issue with saving changes in TM Maintenance view for TMs with Asian languages.
Core Components and File Types
New versions of the following file types were added:
