Packages

Packages are displayed here. Select a package to display the package properties and contents in the right-hand part of the page.

During package creation each package is given a name. By default package names are either the project name or the project name and target language, depending upon whether you have created a single package or split your package by target language. If there is more than one package per target language, a number is appended to the package name.

 

NOTE

  • You can click Add to create an additional package. You can then add files by clicking the Add Files button or you can drag and drop files in existing packages to this new package.

  • You can click Remove to delete the selected package.

If the task you want to assign is not included in the drop-down list, click Tasks to display the Manual Tasks dialog box where you can create new manual tasks.

Files List

In the bottom right-hand part of the page, the files included in the selected package/folder are displayed. The following columns are displayed by default. To display additional columns or to remove columns from the layout, right-click and select Customize from the shortcut menu. The Customize Layout dialog box is displayed. Click here for a description of all available columns.

Name

This column displays the name of the file.

Reference File

 

Select the check box in this column to make a file that is normally translatable or localizable, a reference (read-only) file. This means that the package recipient is not meant to change the file but only use it for more background information. For example, if you send out separate packages for each chapter of a book to different translators, you may want to send all other chapters to a translator for context.

 

If the usage of this file is already specified as Reference, this field is not editable.

Sent Task

This column displays the name of the most recent manual task that was assigned that included this file.

Words

This column displays the number of words in the file.

Status

This column displays the current status of the file, for example, Translated or Reviewed.

Progress

This column displays the percentage that the file is complete in its current status. For example, if the status of the file is In Translation, the percentage would represent how many segments have been translated in the file.

Size

This column displays the size of the file in bytes.

Type

This column displays the user-friendly name for the file type and appears in the navigation pane in the Options dialog box.

Usage

This column displays the three usage types:

  • Translatable - these are files that can be translated and converted, if they not already been converted, to SDL XLIFF files for translation.

  • Localizable - these are files that need to be translated, but which cannot be converted to SDL XLIFF format. For example, graphics files that are marked as Reference may contain text that needs to be localized. You can change the usage of such files to Localizable to flag this.

  • Reference - these are files that provide resources to help translators with the translation of project files but are not to be translated themselves.

Filter Settings

This column displays the settings used to process the content of the source file to prepare it for translation.

Path

If your project source files are arranged in a folder hierarchy, and this file is in a sub-folder, the folder location details are displayed in this column.

Original Name

This column displays the name of the source language file that generated this SDLXLIFF file.

Description

Include Subfolders

If your folder structure contains subfolders, selecting the Include subfolders option allows you to select a higher level folder in the Packages box to display all files within that folder and the files in all the subfolders beneath that folder.

Add Files

 

Click this button to display the Select Files dialog box where you can select additional files from the project to add to the packages selected in the Packages box. This is useful if you want to add reference files to package.

 

NOTE

  • If a translatable or localizable file was already added to another package as a non-reference file, it will be marked as a reference file for the current package automatically.

  • To add a file as reference to a package, it must already exist in the project. If you want to add additional reference files, you must first add them in the Files view to the project and then change their Usage to reference. The files will then be available for selection on this page.

Remove Files

Click this button to remove the selected file was the package.

Move to Package

Click this button to display the Move Files dialog box where you move the selected file(s) to a different package. You can also drag and drop files into a different package.
