Example of an Excel-formatted translation file.

The example shows the contents of various pages that have been exported to an excel file. One column contains the title which is derived from the actual field titles a user would fill out. This makes it extremely easy to understand what exactly is being translated.

Magnolia CMS enables you to export and re-import page content in a translation-friendly format. A new tool entry allows you to export page content in its source language as CSV or Excel format. You can then send it to your translation office and import the translated content back.

Alternatively, you can create a multi-step approval workflow that includes automated export of your content. Export formats are pluggable and can easily be extended to support any custom format you might need.

The generated Excel output file includes context information and a link back to the original content to facilitate translation.
