Working with Folders and Content Blocks


Translating a Content Block to Another Language

Use this procedure when you want to initialize a new foreign language content block with content from a source language. This copying should facilitate the translation.

For example, an editor is translating content from French to German. The editor copies the French edition to a new content block whose language is German. As the editor translates the French edition into German, he deletes the French content. Any images in the content would usually remain, and all formatting (tables, bullets, etc.) is retained.

To copy a content block into a new content block of a different language, follow these steps.

  1. Go to the View Content screen for the content block you want to translate.
  2. From the View drop-down list, select a original language.
  3. Click the content block that you want to translate.
  4. It appears on the View Content screen.
  5. Use the Add drop down list in the upper right corner to select the language into which you want to translate the content.

  1. The original language content appears. Translate into the new language then delete the original content.
  2. When you save the content block, it is saved as the edition of that content block in the selected language.
