Now you are ready to work in the Kits folder of the Translation Manager. You must create a kit for your project. The kit contains the text phrases, resource procedures, and glossary that you have created. After creating the kit, you will create a zip file to send to the translator.
Creating a kit
To create a kit for your French translation, move to the Kits tab.
To create a kit for a translation:
1. Choose the Add button. The Add Kit dialog box appears:
2. Type k-french in the Name box.
3. Check the Replace If Exists box and choose OK. The k-french.db kit is added to the list of kits.
Translation Manager copies text phrases, glossary entries, resource files, environment files, and images. You are now ready to create a zip file to send to the translator.
Creating a zip file
To create a zip file:
1. Choose Create Zip File. The Create Zip File dialog box appears:
2. Type frenchkit.zip in the Zip Filename field and choose OK. Translation Manager creates the zip file that you send to the translator.
At this point the Project Manager sends the zip file to the translator who will use the Visual Translator tool to translate the project. When the translation is complete, the translator sends the zip file back to the Translation Manager project manager for final work.
