How Globalese processes XLIFF files
The following table describes what elements and attributes are required when Globalese parses an uploaded file, and what is changed by Globalese during pre-translation.
When preparing content for pre-translation using Globalese, it is important to let CAT tools do the preparations, or to follow the XLIFF 1.2 specifications otherwise.
