Working with translated text

You can export text to a drawing to the XML Localization Interchange file format (XLIFF), an XML-based format used to share translatable text between localization tools and software.

By default, all paragraph text, artistic text, table text, text on a curve, and callouts in a drawing are exported for translation. You can exclude a text object from translation. When exporting text for translation, the font, font size, type face, bolding, italics, and underlining are maintained.

You can also import translated text from an XLIFF file into drawing.

To export text for translation

1 .	Click File Export for translation.

Text in hidden or locked text objects, or in text objects on hidden or locked layers, is excluded when the drawing is exported for translation.

Text in symbols cannot be exported for translation.

To exclude a text object from translation

1 .	Using the Pick tool , click the text object you want to exclude.

2 .	Click Window Property manager.

3 .	In the Property manager docker, click the Summary button .

You can get the word count of a selected text object by clicking the arrow button located at the bottom of the Summary area of the Property manager.

To import translated text

1 .	With the drawing open, click File Import translations.
