FAQs

What file types work with the Alfresco integration?

The integration supports all major business document formats including Microsoft Office files, PDFs, text documents, and many others. You can translate Word documents, Excel spreadsheets, PowerPoint presentations, and even complex PDF files directly from your Alfresco repository without format conversion.

How does the integration preserve my document structure?

All metadata, folder hierarchies, file permissions, and custom properties remain intact throughout the translation process. When localised files return to Alfresco, they maintain the same organisational structure as your source documents, making it easy to find and manage multilingual content.

Can I customise translation workflows for different content types?

Yes, you can set up different translation workflows, quality processes, and linguist assignments based on content type or department. The integration remembers your preferences and automatically applies the right workflow when you send documents for translation from Alfresco.

What happens if I need to update a document that's already been translated?

The integration tracks document versions and can identify when source content changes. You can easily send updated versions for re-translation, and the system will highlight changes for linguists while preserving existing translations where content hasn't changed.
