Manage Localized Content

View Localized Content

Locales are translated versions of your content, for example, in Canadian French or Polish.

You can view localized content from the localization manager or the Content Library. This procedure explains how to do it from the Content Library.

In the Content Library, click the map, topic, or media file for which you want to view locales.
On the right side of the screen, the Resource Drawer appears.
In the Resource Drawer select the Locales tab.
In the Locales tab, click the locale you want to view.

You can view all locales available for the file and switch between them by clicking the specific locale you want to see.

Edit Localized Content in Heretto CCMS

You can modify your localized content directly in Heretto CCMS. When you do, your changes are saved only in the CCMS and are not communicated to your Localization Services Provider (LSP), even if you use the XTM integration.

Navigate to the localization job for which you want to modify localized content by doing one of the following:

Option	Description
Recommended: Modify localized content for a released map:	In the Content Library, click the map for which you want to modify localized content. The Resource Drawer appears on the right side of the screen. In the Resource Drawer, select Releases. In the Releases tab, go to the proper release and click Localize.
Modify localized content for a branched map:	In the Content Library, click the map for which you want to modify localized content. The Resource Drawer appears on the right side of the screen. In the Resource Drawer, select Branches. You will see the list of branches related to your map. In the Branches tab, switch to the branch that contains the map for which you want to modify localized content. The Branches tab closes and you are back in the Content Library. Click the map for which you want to modify localized content. In the Resource Drawer on the right of the screen, select the Jobs tab.
Modify localized content for a standard map:	In the Content Library, click the map for which you want to modify localized content. The Resource Drawer appears on the right side of the screen. In the Resource Drawer, select the Jobs tab.
Modify localized content for any map	In the Content Library, go to Localization Jobs in the left pane.

From the Localization Jobs list, select a job you want to modify localized content for.
To make temporary changes that you need to publish, click the Edit button, modify the locale in Cache Mode (the default mode for editing locales) and click Close button.
Cache Mode is useful for making temporary changes that you need to print. For example, you may need to make a change that you need to print but you don't want saved as the official localization, such as a small change for a specific customer or deliverable.
Your changes are saved in the Cache Mode. When you publish this locale, your change will be included. You can overwrite the Cache Mode version with the Translation Memory Mode version, that is the version that you uploaded with your localization package.
To make changes to the locales in Translation Memory Mode, click the Mode field, select Translation Memory Mode, modify the locale, and click the Close button.
The Translation Memory Mode stores the locales uploaded to Heretto CCMS in localization packages. You can think of TM Mode as the mode that stores the official localization, or translation memory, in Heretto CCMS. TM Mode has no revision history mechanism, so make sure to modify it only when absolutely sure the changes are correct.
Your changes are saved in TM Mode and overwrite the stored localization.

Changes that you made are stored in Heretto CCMS. They are not communicated to your LSP, even if you use the XTM integration.

Edit Localized Content Locally

Download or upload localized files that you've made modifications to.

Sometimes you may want to modify the structure of individual localized DITA or media files outside of Heretto CCMS. You can modify them outside of Heretto CCMS by downloading the localized topic from the Locales tab and then editing the structure.

Note:

Locales are versions of your content in a target language, for example, in Canadian French or Polish. The locales listed in the Locales tab are locales for the standard map and the locales created for the releases and branches of the map.

You can easily identify the correct localization job by using the localization job number that you can see in both the ZIP file name and the Localization Jobs in Progress tab.

Remember:
If both your DITA and media content need to be resent to the localization provider, you need to send them two packages: an XLIFF Package and a Media Package.
