“Another one”, “one more”, “a third one”, or something else?
Hello!
What do you think about using “another one”, “one more”, and “a third one” in the following context?
“He translated two files of a hotel and restaurant and edited the translation of another one/one more/a third one for a translation company based in Spain.”
I feel like the third option is the least confusing. What do you think? Or should I better keep it “another file/a third file” for the sake of clarity?
Thank you so much.

From a grammar standpoint all three of your possibilities are fine. In this instance, they all mean more or less the same thing. There's no particular reason to prefer any of them. Although 'a third file' would have the most explicit meaning, as a native speaker, I would not be confused by any of the options.
