Requesting a translation

In XTM Portal, when Requesters click the Request Translation tab, they are taken to a standard screen to create a translation request. The available options are:

  • Upload or drop a file

  • Paste text (no limit on the number of characters, however only the first 250 words will be visible on the translation confirmation page)

  • Choose a template from the dropdown menu (see template configuration in XTM)

  • Add reference files to help the linguist

  • Add comments to customize a request

For the full list of the available options, see Customizable Request Translation order form parameters.

To create a translation request:
  1. Select Files to translate. Select Template from the dropdown. Click Next.

  2. Select Source language and Target language, Due date and Project name. Click Send request.
