XLF Version 2.1.
- 1 year ago
How to change your versioning to translate your XLIFF doc for Rise. This is the process I use and it work.
- Log in to your Rise account using your credentials.
- Search the Rise module that needs to be translated.
- Click on the tree dot in the top right corner of the module.
- Select “Duplicate” and create a copy of the module.
- Access the copied module by clicking on it.
- Click on setting on the top bar
- On the Translation tab, click on “Export XLIFF File” button
- An XLIFF life has been downloaded in “Your Download”
- Open your XLIFF using Notepad++ (Right click on it and choose “Open with”)
- Click on the text on the top of the screen. The firs section will turn yellow, and, in that section, you will need to replace the versioning 1.2 by 2.1 (3 different place as shown in the picture bellow)
- Click on save (third image .. hard drive) You now have an XLIFF version 2.1
- Access your translation engine (DeepL, etc) and download the XLIFF doc for translation
- Once the document is translated, download it back into “Your download”
- The translated document will end with “fr-ca.xlf”
- You need to repeat the same process as #8 and change it back from 2.1 version to 1.2 at the same tree places using Notepad++.
- Click on save (third image .. hard drive) You now have an XLIFF version 1.2
- Access back your copy of the Rise module that you have exported the XLIFF doc and click on “Import Translated text” and select your document that finishes with “fr-ca.xlf”.
- Update the label to “French”
- Close this window by clicking on the “Close” button on the top right corner.
- The module is translated and ready for French QA
+1 for being able to export xliff 2.1 from Rise and Storyline. We subscribe to Deepl and can't use it to translate our Storyline content as it doesn't support the xliff versions that come from Storyline.
This is quite annoying, I have to say. We solved the problem by using Hero Translate as follows: Hero Translate converts XLIFF 1.2 to Excel → DeepL translates the Excel file → Hero Translate converts the Excel back to XLIFF 1.2 → finally, the file is imported back into Rise/Storyline.

elearningtranslator.com can do that directly without the Excel-step in between. Happy to help if anybody has questions!

Ideally we'd be able to use Deepl. Our customer trusts it and we're in a highly regulated industry where getting permission to use new software and services takes a lot of time. We are translating at volume so cost also comes in to it - elearningtranslator looks significantly more expensive compared to Deepl based on my initial research.

Is this something that is automated or do you have to go through them for a quote? I can't see anything automated on their website.

Hello RiikaH -
In Hero Translate you can cut out the Excel steps when using DeepL. Check 'Use Translate 2.5 Approach' and then:
- Select either Rise 360 or Storyline for the file type.
- Add your file(s) to be translated.
- Select your source and translate to language
- Click Start Translation.
Hope that helps!
