Link your Apertera Workspaces** To allow the engine to continuously learn from your edited segments and use your specific Apertera configurations paste your Workspace ID into the Workspace ID field. Note: The Workspace ID field is optional. If left blank, the MT results from Apertera will default to your General Workspace. ![](https://images.tango.us/workflows/2193f190-291d-4c64-8bc8-1d825dabb66c/steps/2ffd7774-cc93-4274-8d49-7cb541142f38/369c4aae-0137-4596-911e-a10ffafa2f52.jpg?q=100) ### **10. Configure tags and formatting** Use the **Tags and formatting** dropdown to choose how memoQ handles the text: - **Use plain text only:** Processes the text without retaining formatting or tags. - **Use both formatting and tags:** Preserves the formatting and tags from your source document. ![](https://images.tango.us/workflows/2193f190-291d-4c64-8bc8-1d825dabb66c/steps/07824cd7-2d33-4187-9800-314de828e153/53fb95a0-8afb-46af-ba9e-f4641c07614c.png?mark-x=312&mark-y=809&m64=aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWFnZXMudGFuZ28udXMvc3RhdGljL2JsYW5rLnBuZz9tYXNrPWNvcm5lcnMmYm9yZGVyPTQlMkNEQjMwMzAmdz05NyZoPTYxJmZpdD1jcm9wJmNvcm5lci1yYWRpdXM9MTA%3D) ### **11.

Configure Self-learning MT** From the *Self-learning MT* dropdown, select **Apertera**.
