Translation Statistics
You may need to check the status of translations of generated text. You can find this information in several places.
Status of Translations for Current Stylesheet
Select the > menu option to generate a report that will give you information on the overall status of translations of generated text in the current stylesheet.
A sample report is shown below:
Stylesheet "mydoctype.style" contains 30 translatable items.
The source language is "en (English)".
Language Translated Not Translated Last Import Date Export Date
Current Not Current
fr(French) 20 5 5 20-Sep-2009 1-Aug-2009
de(German) 25 3 2 25-Sep-2009 1-Aug-2009
Note that Export Date is the date that the file that was last imported was exported. If you have exported a file, but never imported its translations, this report will contain no value for Export Date. Dates are localized.
Refer to
Importing Translations of Generated Text for the process of marking translations as current or not current.
If the current stylesheet contains no target language definitions, the report will explain this:
