Limitations

The SDL Instant Translation Browser plug-in has some limitations when delivering MT (Machine Translation) results.

Translating external content
Some web content may be hosted in a different domain than the main web page. This can include: discussion windows, news tickers or prompts, some ads, and so on. For security reasons, such external content is not fully available to the plug-in and does not get translated automatically. You can still select this content explicitly and translate it with the available options.
Working with Microsoft Office 365
The SDL Instant Translation Browser plug-in does not work with the following Microsoft Office 365 applications: Word, Powerpoint and Excel. The SDL Instant Translation Browser plug-in works only with Microsoft Office 365 Outlook.
