Translation project file
About
A translation project is used to translate new and modified content to any of the active languages in Skribenta. You work in a translation project file to translate new and modified source language content in publications and content files.
When the translation work is done, you update the translation memory to create new translation blocks. When you edit a translated content file, you only need to translate the new and modified content as untouched content does not need to be translated again.
A translation project is also used to add new translations in existing translation blocks in the translation memory. In this case, you can use different query methods to fetch the translation blocks from the translation memory you need to add translations to.
The work to translate content from a source language to one (1) target language, is called a translation job. When you create a translation project file it contains a table. In this table, a set of two table rows below the table header corresponds to a translation job.
