Bundling .props files for outsourced LSP

Post by raejohnston »

Hi,

I have some images with callouts (generated using Capture) that I need translating. I believe this is possible using the .props file, but when I bundle a project in Lingo, the .props files don't come up on the file list so I can't select them and include them in the bundle.

My LSP says they can see the callout content, but will have to manually extract it in order to translate it.

Is there an easy way to get this content translated without having to manually recreate the image?

Thanks!

Just for future reference.

You should be able to include the image files themselves, not the PROPS files, when creating a bundle. They can also be opened in Lingo to view the segments, like any other translatable file.

Tip: Only include image files that contain segments for translation when sending bundles out. You can sort by the # Segments column in Lingo.
