Using the Translation Manager, text from your title can be extracted and saved to a RTF (rich text format) file. This includes all text within text blocks, text within custom buttons created using the Button Wizard and text used within Display Message actions. RTF files can be edited with most word processing applications, and the content of the RTF file can be translated for importing back into the title.

To publish the same title in multiple languages, specify the translated RTF files in the Languages tab when publishing. After your main title is published, the program will publish your translated titles using the translation files you provide. For details, see Publishing a title. |

On the Tools ribbon, click the 
Translations graphic in the Manage group. The Translation Manager window opens.
