  Excited to announce that users can now translate a full document with over 40 Supported Languages! Here's how it works:

   

  Workiva uses machine translation to translate sections of text or entire documents. There are two main approaches:

   

  Option 1: Machine Translation (Built-in)
  - Open the Language Translation panel and go to the Translate Document tab
  - Select your target language from the dropdown
  - Click Translate and choose to translate the full document or just selected sections
  - The translation automatically opens in a new tab
  - No character limit when translating the full document this way
  - Note: Does not maintain links

   

  Option 2: External Translation (XLIFF)
  - For customers needing to maintain numeric links and higher accuracy
  - Requires working with a Translation Management System (TMS)
  - Available in certain solution tiers (not available for GRC)
  - You can also upload a glossary for product names, acronyms, and key terms to improve accuracy

   

  Note: Translation must be enabled in the workspace, you'll still need to contact Workiva Support if not already enabled!

  Hi Annav!

  In doing some testing with Language Translation, its only possible at this time to translate a chunk of text, not necessarily change the entire document per se. However, what you could do is copy the 6K or 40F, and run the translation on the copied version, and from the translation you can copy/paste that text in so that the copied version is in the new translation. Does that make sense?

  Let me know what questions you have or if you need anything else. Thanks and chat soon.

  Hi Mike, can you turn the translation tool on in my account, I will test this to see how close we come to a translated document from our external source.

  Thank you

  Certainly! Hold tight and I'll get that request going.
