Translating a Content Object with the Editor

Use

In the SAP KW Translator you translate content objects of Info Object Classes Slide, Text (or Topic), and Visio Objects using MS PowerPoint MS Word or MS Visio. These applications are started automatically when you want to translate content objects.

Content objects of info object class HTML can be translated in a special HTML editor provided by the SAP Knowledge Warehouse.

Prerequisites

The translation package to be translated was created with the SAP KW Translator (without Trados) option and is stored on the front-end.

The translation package contains content objects of Info Object Classes Slide, Text(or Topic), Visio Objects, or HTML.

You are in the SAP KW Translator.

The content object to be translated is identified as a primary component.

Procedure

To translate a content object with the appropriate editor, proceed as follows:

Double-click on the content object.
The appropriate editor is started. The content object is marked as open in the SAP KW Translator.

Two windows are displayed. One window contains the original language file and the other one contains the target language file.

Note

If you only see one window (for example, when translating HTML objects), move this window. The second window lies below it.
Translate the content object and save the translation.
Close the editor.

Both windows are closed.

If this is not the case, close the windows manually.

Result

The content object is translated. It is marked with status In Process in the SAP KW Translator.

After completing the translation of the content object, you should set the status to Translated, so that the object is definitely included when the translation package is imported.
