Do you translate your Tridion Docs content?

Nigel Lock

Hello Community!

I'm Nigel Lock, a Solutions Consultant with RWS. We are interested in learning more about the scale of use cases associated with translating your content stored in Tridion Docs.

  1. What is a typical size for the publications that you send for translation? i.e. number of components/topics
  2. How many languages do you typically translate? 
  3. Is the content being sent from Tridion Docs (using Translation Organizer) to an RWS translation management system?  

Any input would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance for your feedback. If you prefer to contact me directly, that is great too: nlock@rws.com. Thank you!

  • Hello Nigel!

    We do indeed translate manuals.

    1) The number of objects differs from one publication to the next. We use a LOT of libraries. Once a library is translated we don't need to do it again, and thus we save tons of money. Updates are then typically limited to less than 50 objects. However, when translating to a new language, or if it is a brand new publication, the number of objects can easily be more than 3000. Each object is very small.

    2) Two to seven languages

    3) We use "Translation job" and export the objects to a ZIP file. This ZIP file is sent to the translation agency. The objects returned are imported using Content Importer.

    regards
