  7. Copy all the presented information to a text editing program, such as Notepad or Notepad++, and save the data as a .txt file.

  9. On the resulting Games screen, click the Galaxy Features button for the game you want to import Steam achievements to, then select Achievements from the displayed menu. The Achievements screen will appear.

  10. Follow the steps outlined in Adding Achievements Imported From Steam to import the data from the .txt file to the Developer Portal.
