How can I let my translators keep working with their own CAT tool?

Can I create jobs for offline translation ? If yes, how can I then have my Project Memory updated?

  1. You make sure the access right for uploading/downloading XLIFF files is activated for a given profil (translator, revisor, proofreader,…)
  2. You “mark the file for online translation”.
  3. The translator will enter the translation editor and select XLIFF on top and export the bilingual content (including pre-translations).
  4. The translator can upload it to any CAT tool covering the XLIFF file format. Depending on the tool used, your translator might also upload comments made at the segment level.
  5. Once translated, the translator goes back into the editor and upload it back (overwriting rules can be set if post editing has been made on pre-translations).
  6. This way, you ensure that the  Project Memory will be filled in.

  Check if the person has the right to up - & download XLIFF files by going to <Settings> - <Access Rights> - Editing - XLIFF import/export of documents. If the translator does not have access click on `edit` to change this  (see screenshot).

  The translated document can be uploaded in the editor when clicking on `XLIFF`- import document from XLIFF (2. screenshot).
