About Item Categories: Translatable and Other Items

Usually a project contains some items that are not for translation. For example, a project might include some graphics files or translation instructions.

You define the item category when you add the item to a project and the category is shown in the project status. The following table lists available item categories. 

  • Translatable

  • Localizable

  • Reference

  • Instruction
