Working with translations

Feb 08, 2011

Hi everyone

I have question regarding translations

Is there a way in Articulate Presenter and Engage to export and import the text used in course to work with translations easy? I know you can solve this in Flash with xml is there a similiar way with Articulate and Engage?

Kind regards

Hi Robert-

The best / cleanest / supported method would be to create a package file of your course, which will copy everything into a zip file:

Send to Articulate Presenter Package

Then copy the zip file to a new location, extract it, translate via the authoring tools, and re-publish.

Another method, which would not be supported by Articulate, is to manipulate the published XML files, where you can find the text that's created by the authoring tools in your published output.

For your published Presenter course, look here:

\data\presentation.xml

For your Engage interaction embedded in Presenter, look here:

\data\swf\engage_\engage_content\data.xml

We don't support any kind of import / export methods related to translating courses (or duplicating and modifying the XML files), but that at least gets you to the raw text.

Hope this helps!
