Great question! This is something we've shared with our team as a feature request! I'll pass along this discussion so that our team is aware of your need as well. Once I have an update I'll be able to share here as well.
Hi Julie! Rise 360 can be exported to PDF, and you may be able to convert the PDF to a Word document depending on the PDF reading software installed on your computer.
Without import from Word there is a great burden of time; copy and pasting and the increased likelihood for error. Please let us know what is happening here
I'd also like to request that this be considered. At the moment, when exporting the PDF to Word, there are text boxes, lines and images that all need to be removed, and styles need to be added. Or, if the PDF could be more plain text, that would help. Thanks
We have to "pick" the information back into the file, in all its layers, when translated.
This is a duplication of effort compared to Articulate and raises the possibility for error.
What about accessible text and settings etc. these do not show in PDF?
We can download into XLIFF but our Translation department (large as they are) do not have the necessary software to use it. The "Word" translation option in Articulate is perfect, why can't it be looked at for RISE 360 ?
Hi, Bernadette! The feature to allow translation Rise courses using Word isn't in our roadmap at the moment. If your translation department doesn't have a translation tool, I know lots of people in the community have had success with a free tool called SmartCat, so you may want to give it a try!
Hi Mahesh! Thanks for expressing interest in a feature to export a PDF that includes the feedback and answers. We're currently tracking requests for this, so I've added you to this list. We'll update this thread if we make changes that will help.
I wonder if anything changed in Rise's roadmap in this regard? Exporting directly to Word would be such an added value and would reduce all the extra steps using online converters etc.
Hi Florian, on a side note - What online converters have you used? I'm interested in trialling something for this purpose and any recommendations would be most helpful. Thanks : )
Wishing to add to the need for a MS Word export from Rise 360. As other commenters have said, many of us do not have XLIFF software and the like of SOFTCAT no longer offer a free version / our IT department do not allow usage of other free versions. Our translation team still prefer to work with WORD or Excel than an software tool. As others have mentioned the work to prepare the modules for translation, then copy and paste back are time consuming and open to error.

Hi Dror,

Looking forward to this being one of the upcoming features!
I look forward to the addition too.
Hi all,
Today's new feature in Rise: Export as PDF! Take a look at Arlyn's post on it here. You can also find instructions in this tutorial.
You can take the exported pdf and convert it to word using free apps like https://simplypdf.com/
Works really well :-)
I agree, the ability to export to Word from Rise would be an awesome feature.
Has this ever been done? The ability to export to Word is really needed.

Agreed, this is a needed feature. +1.
a much needed feature, we are spending too much time to create job aids
Any luck with this? It's been years since this question was posted and it would be great to export as word.

This is all very well, but even if you can do this you still have to transfer the content back (copy and paste)

Thanks Caitlyn

Hi All,
If I have export as PDF, For questions feedback answer is not taking, anyone how to extract with question and answers.

Throwing my request hat in the ring for either an export to WORD or the ability to copy edit in the Review Tool.

Chiming in here, this would be a really great feature to add to the roadmap. Stakeholder reviews are pretty difficult as it is now.
