Depending on your environment, you may choose to import translation kits from desktop translation tools into a project or a task list.
-
In
or in the Task List, click
Import. You do not need to select a project or task when you click
Import because the project information is contained in the translation kit that you will import.
The
Import Offline Work dialog displays.
-
Click
Browse and select the file to import. The file you choose must be a valid completed translation kit that originally was exported from WorldServer and that has been translated offline.
-
If you have the appropriate permissions, you may also choose whether to update the translation memory based on the contents of the translation kit. To insert matches, check the
Update the translation memory using imported assets check box. You may not want to insert the matches into translation memory if updating the translation memory is the responsibility of the reviewer, who can update the translation memory after reviewing the translation.
-
If you have the appropriate permissions, you can choose to run the import in the background. If you choose to run a job in the background, you can freely disconnect from WorldServer while waiting for the job to run, and you will be notified when the job completes. If you choose not to run the job in the background, you must stay connected to WorldServer until the job finishes.
-
Click
Import.
If the tasks that you exported are no longer claimed by you, the tasks will not be imported. There may be other reasons that a task is not imported. Import errors are listed in the
Import dialog box.
Note: If an error message appears regarding duplicate or missing placeholders, either open the task in the WorldServer Browser Workbench and re-translate the offending target segments, or fix the placeholders in the offline tool and re-import the task.
The task status changes to the imported icon when the import is complete.
