Translation of websites in TYPO3

TYPO3 is one of the most flexible and commonly used content management systems (CMS). It is perfectly suitable for the creation and management of scaling and multilingual websites. Multilingual content can be managed in a clearly organised way out of the box in TYPO3.

The manual translation process is easily implementable for smaller websites directly in TYPO3’s back end, but with increasing amounts of content, a growing website and more content writers and workspaces, the manual translation process in TYPO3 increasingly loses its efficiency. The typical workflow with manual, direct translation in the back end and manual copying of content is more prone to error, slower and prevents simultaneous editing by several content writers. The result is rising costs while quality sinks.

• Use of translation memory and terminology management systems - increases the quality of translations and ensures stylistic and terminological consistency
• Simultaneous editing of different content by several content writers
• No more copying and pasting thanks to XML extraction – save time and eliminate sources of error
• No need for complicated and error-prone editing of source code by translators
• Quality assurance integrated in the workflow by a KERN QA proofreader and checks of various content before the conclusion of all workflow steps
• Flexible deployment of a customer-side proofreader as requested
