Localization Management

Keep multilingual content moving in sync

XDocs DITA CCMS helps localization managers identify translation work, coordinate language projects and keep source and translated content aligned through each update.

See XDocs in action
  1. Identify translation work
  2. Connect with your LSP
  3. Track project status
  4. Synchronize versions

01 / Translation reporting

Know what needs translation

Report on content that has never been translated, needs a new translation or has not changed since the last translation.

Identify shared content already out for translation through another publication, and adapt reporting and packaging to your strategy.

02 / Localization workflows

Coordinate content exchange with your LSP

Connect XDocs with your Localization Service Provider (LSP) to send content for translation and bring translated content back into the CCMS.

Notify selected people as the localization workflow progresses. Send changed content for a new translation cycle while source-language work continues.

03 / Translation dashboard

See project status across languages

View the status of translation projects in one dashboard.

Identify where updates may be required and where content is shared.

04 / Link repair

Address links as translated content changes

Use link-healing and fixup tools to find and correct unwanted link issues in translated content.

Support agile and incremental translation strategies as content evolves.

05 / Source and target synchronization

Keep language versions connected

Match and synchronize source-language and target-language files.

Search, query and inspect version histories for translated content and the source content it relates to.

Structured content / AI-ready foundations

A maintained source for connected knowledge

Keeping source and translated files matched gives language content useful context. Version histories help maintain that structured foundation for downstream publishing and connected AI initiatives.

AI outcomes depend on content quality, retrieval and the tools you connect.
