IT WAS CUMBERSOME…

  • Export manually content to be translated in a format

that translators can process

  • Send the exported content to translators, via email
  • Quality-check the translations when ready
  • Copy-paste translations back into Drupal, language by

language

  • Edit language pages to correct layout errors
  • Publish translated pages

  • The Drupal-Beebox solution:

– Tracks content additions and updates, down to sentence level – Recycles existing translations – Sends selected content to Connexion or your translation provider – Pushes translated content back to Drupal, automatically or supervised – Offers possible integration of Machine Translation – Optimises translation time and cost
