Question

XD files for Translation

HI Community,

Hope all is well.

Could please help and let me know how can i prepare the XD file for translation?  The file format needed is xliff.

As in figma, we do have a plugin to export it for translation but I am looking if I can do anything similar for XD.

    Thank you for flagging @AkinGn 
    I've never worked with XLIFF myself. I have seen a plugin that exports XD file to XML though. From then on it should not be hard to translate the XML to XLIFF since both are basically XML.

      Makes sense @Kenneth Kawamoto, sounds like the best workaround right now!

      Hi @Whispering_practice5C82, hmm I can't see any plugin for that specific purpose but as I see in this conversation: https://community.adobe.com/t5/adobe-xd-discussions/how-to-export-xd-content-for-translation/td-p/10635577 some workarounds could be thanks to @Kenneth Kawamoto and @Ares Hovhannesyan :

      "Perhaps you can utilise Google Sheets plugin <https://googlesheetsforadobexd.impekable.com/>"

      "you can export pdf files then upload them into google translate."

      Hope this helps!
