Target Folder

You can specify the target folder and file names for the files to be exported on the second export dialog page.

If you are exporting a translation bundle, see Target Folders for Translation Bundles.

Folder

Specify the target folder to be used for the export of files.

Output

Some export formats let you combine several string lists into one export file. For these formats the Output combobox provides the following selection:

  • Write to separate files Each string list can be written to a separate file. If supported by the given format, it is also possible to merge several files. To do so, select the files you want to merge and click on Change File Name.
  • Write to a single export file All string lists are written to one export file. The file name is specified in the File Name field, which is displayed next to the Folder field with this selection.
  • Write one file for each target language The translation lists are grouped according to target language. For example, all the string lists for German are written to one export file and all the string lists for French to another.

SDL Passolo automatically suggests names for the export files. If you create several translation bundles, you can change a name by clicking on Change File Name.

Write

Choose which strings from the selected string lists you want to export.

  • All strings The entire string list is written. Deleted strings (in the recycle bin) are not written
  • All strings, including deleted strings The entire string list is written, including any deleted strings in the recycle bin.
  • All strings that are currently displayed All strings displayed in the active string list window are written.
  • All selected strings All strings selected in the active string list window are written.

The last two options are available if you start the export while a string list window is active. If you select one of these options, the string lists available for export are identical to those in the string list window, and you will not be able to add any further string lists

Selecting string lists

The list shows all string lists that were selected in the project window before you opened the export dialog. Click on Add to add additional string lists to the translation bundle.

Finish

Click Finish to start the export as specified.
