Importing Translated transcripts into captions

I'm using the new auto transcribe function which is working great but I also have a translation (in Word) that i need use to create another subtitle file. 

 

Ideally I would export the English SRT file, paste the translated text into the relevant spaces and then re-import to insert the translations into the exact same spots in my subtitle file but I can't see a way to do this. 

 

What am I missing?

Nothing intuitive about this, and no simple way to do it. A translation in word is unlikely to entirely sync to the timecodes from the transcription.

 

See this post:

Also export the srt from PR. Then after doing the "import text" in Subtitle Edit, try using the "import timecodes." I have not done this, but it may get it very close.

 

Let us know...
