NOTE
Editing HTML Content
For example, an editor is translating content from French to
German. The editor copies the French edition to new content
whose language is German. As the editor translates the French
edition into German, he deletes the French content. Any images in
the content would usually remain, and all formatting (tables,
bullets, etc.) is retained.
Ektron CMS400.NET also has a Language Export feature copies content into
XLIFF files for submission to a translation agency. For more information, see the
Ektron CMS400.NET Administrator Manual section “Multi-Language Support” >
“Using the Language Export Feature.”
To copy content into new content block of a different language,
follow these steps.
1. Go to the View Content screen for the content you want to
translate. See Also: ”Viewing Content” on page 40
2. Use the Add: dropdown list in the upper right corner to select
the language into which you want to translate the content.
3. The Edit Content screen appears with original language
content.
4. Translate into the new language then delete the original
content.
If desired, you can click the Translate button ( ). If you do, a
new screen prompts you to identify the original language, new
language, and a glossary. Then, the content is translated. If
you like the translation, click Paste Content, and the translated
content replaces the original.
Once the translated content is inserted into the editor, you can
edit it as needed.
5. When you save the content, it is saved as the edition of that
content in the selected language. It has the same content ID
number as the original content but a different language
identifier.
