Existing Translations |
Existing translations or translation storage is a collection of translations. It is either a file or a database. The translations in translation storage contain certain terms or sentences in two or more languages. Soluling handles translation storage as a read-only item. It reads a translation from the translation storage but does not modify them.
Soluling supports the following translation storage formats:
| Translation storage | Description |
|---|---|
| Database | Database that contains translations. |
| Excel | Excel or OpenDocument file that contains translations. |
| TMX | Translation Memory Exchange file. |
| XLIFF | XML Localization Interchange File Format file. |
In addition to the above glossaries, Soluling supports the following files it can export data to:
| Translation storage | Description |
|---|---|
| JSON | JSON file pair. If you have two JSON files that use Soluling's JSON export format you can use the files as translation storage. |
| ResX | ResX file pair. If you have two ResX files that use Soluling's ResX export format you can use the files as translation storage. |
In addition to the above glossaries and export files, Soluling supports the following legacy storage formats:
| Translation storage | Description |
|---|---|
| Binary file | Binary file that contains translations. |
| CSV | Comma-separated values file that contains translations. |
| Delphi translation repository | Delphi's translation repository file. |
| EDICT dictionary | EDICT dictionary file (home page) |
Microsoft Translation and UI Strings glossary |
Microsoft's legacy glossary file that contains terms and translations used by Microsoft products. Files use CSV format and .csv file extension. You can download a language-specific zip file that contains several glossaries from the MSDN download page. Most recent Microsoft glossaries are in TBX format and are also served through an API. |
| PO | PO file pair. If you have two PO files that contain the same items but in different languages, you can use the files as translation storage. |
| Text file | Regular expression defined text file that contains translations. |
You can import translation from translation storage into your project file. The Translate sheet in the ribbon bar contains Import and Export section. Click Import file if your translation storage is a file. Click Import database if your translation storage is a database. In both cases, the application starts the Import Wizard that lets you specify the translation storage and the import options.
