Once pages are uploaded to the Lingotek translation management system, they will be available to the translator in the Lingotek workbench.
You can translate in either Confluence or in Lingotek, depending on your needs.
If you need translate many pages, we recommend completing them in Lingotek; if you need to perform an in-context review, we recommend completing it in Confluence.
