Markup is never translated
Tags, attributes, namespaces, and entity references are treated as structure, not as content.

XML Translation With Structure Intact
Translate XML into 75+ languages without touching the markup. Tags, attributes, CDATA, and placeholders are protected; only translatable text is replaced, and it returns to exactly the right node.

Capabilities
What XML Translation does
Placeholders survive
Variables and interpolation tokens are protected, so a translated string still renders correctly at runtime.
Valid XML back
Output parses. You get a well-formed document per language, not a text file you have to reassemble.
Glossary and memory
Terminology is enforced and previously approved strings are reused across every file in the set.
How it works
Four steps, one orchestrated run
Every stage runs on the same platform, so nothing is exported, re-uploaded, or handed between tools.
- 01
Upload the file
Drop in one XML file or a whole batch.
- 02
Choose targets
Pick languages and the glossary to apply.
- 03
Translate
Translatable nodes are extracted, translated, and written back in place.
- 04
Download
Get a valid XML file per target language.
Who it is for
Teams using XML Translation
Technical documentation
DocBook, DITA, and custom documentation schemas.
Product catalogues
Feed files that drive storefronts and marketplaces.
Application resources
Android strings and other XML-backed resource sets.
Content interchange
System-to-system payloads that must stay parseable.
FAQ
Questions people ask
Will my XML still be valid after translation?
Yes. Files are parsed structurally rather than as text. Tags, attributes, namespaces, and entities are preserved and the output is a well-formed document per language.
What about variables and placeholders?
They are protected during translation, so interpolation tokens survive intact and translated strings still render correctly at runtime.
Can I translate many XML files at once?
Yes. Batch upload is supported, and translation memory is shared across the batch so repeated strings translate once and reuse everywhere.
