Tip: Reimporting a completed XLIFF translation has the same effect as completing each segment manually in the workbench.

 

Reimporting completed translations

  • Inserts translations into the document(s).
  • Saves your translations and adds them to TM.
  • If all segments have a translation, the document is marked as 100% complete.
