Topic: Help on using WF Pro to translate website content
Poster: mleach
Hi there,
I'm considering using WF Pro to translate a website's content. I've searched for advice on how to do this here and elsewhere but haven't found any. Here's what I've tried so far as a test:
- I've saved one of the website's pages as a html file, then uploaded this into WF.
- I've translated half of the source and copied the rest of the source over into the target.
- I've clicked on "Save Translated File" and saved the file
- But when I open the saved file it is the same source content as the original file
What am I doing wrong? Would it be best to cut and paste the content in the html file into a Word document, upload this to WF Pro, save the content as a Word file and have the client upload the content to their site? Seems like a complicated way of doing things and I'm sure there must be an easier way.
I'm using WF Pro 3.2.
Any advice would be much appreciated!
Best,
Mark
