Common page

OptionDescription
Include these types of text

Choose the types of text to extract for translation. For example, if you select Hyperlink locations , the filter extracts the text of the hyperlink locations.

Include text from these section types

Choose the types of section to include. For example if you select Hidden sections, the filter extracts for translation the text in hidden sections.

Include document properties

Document properties include the document's author, its creation date, and so on. You can extract these properties for translation or ignore them.

'All properties' includes custom properties, sometimes called fields or variables.

Process special formatting
Special formatting is formatting that cannot be shown in the editor. Examples are:
  • Rotation
  • Scaling
  • Pair kerning
  • Spacing
If you choose to process special formatting, such formatting is represented as tags in the target document. If you do not process special formatting, it is lost in extraction.
Process documents containing tracked changes

Usually you do not want to process documents that have tracked changes, because both original and new text is extracted for translation, which is probably not desirable. The problem does not arise if the document does not have tracked changes (even if tracked changes are enabled).

Extract embedded drawings

If selected, then text in drawings is extracted.
