Translating a Document

You can have as many translations of a document as you require. If you haven’t yet read our documentation on Configuring Languages, you’ll want to do that first to learn how to set up languages within the Crystallize App and see what document information/content is translatable.

You’ll also need permissions for the Tree and the items/languages you intend to work with. Refer to our documentation on roles and permissions for more information.

Once your tenant has more than one language, you can browse to a document within your catalogue and use the Language drop-down menu at the top of the screen to switch between translations.

Choose document translation

Within translatable fields (such as document name), you’ll be able to enter different data for each translation. Each translation is stored as a draft version, and changes are automatically saved. Each translation must be published in order to make changes publicly available. By clicking the action button (...) at the top of the screen, you’ll see options for publishing and unpublishing all translations at once, which can speed up this process.
