IDML Translator: localize your rulebook without leaving InDesign's layout

Upload an InDesign rulebook, translate every paragraph, review it side by side and download an IDML that keeps every style.

·

New feature

Localizing a rulebook usually means copying text out of InDesign, sending it off and pasting it back paragraph by paragraph. The IDML Translator does the round trip for you.

  • Six languages: Translate into Portuguese (Brazil), Spanish, French, German, Italian or English.

  • Keeps your layout: You get back an IDML with the same layout and styles. Icons, tabs, InDesign markers and codes like [coin] stay as they are.

  • Glossary: Build a glossary from your rulebook PDF so card names and keywords always translate the same way.

  • Review side by side: Check each segment next to the original, fix it and approve it, with warnings for text that runs long.

  • Work as a team: Pick up a teammate's review on any device. Download a PDF review sheet too.
