Excel |
Microsoft Excel 97-2003 workbook with the file extension *.xls. There is a maximum text length restriction of 255 characters, a restriction of 3 languages (number of columns) and a restriction of max. approx. 65000 texts (number of rows). The number of languages refers to the sum of the target languages and additional languages. The restriction to 3 languages can be cancelled by placing a "Template.xls" file next to the translation manager program file. This must contain a spreadsheet with the name "TidxTexts". The first three columns must be named "FullName", "Name" and "Description" in line 1. Then as many columns must be named, e.g. with "Lxxxx" (see column naming), as the maximum number of languages to be exported. The number of these columns is also limited and lies between 10 and 20. It is better to use the file type "ExcelX". |

However, any number of additional languages can be specified. |
