Generate output from a localized map

Localization varies slightly for output generation, since it requires you to use the related language manifest when you generate an output for each target language, rather than using the source map.

The most common approach after obtaining localized content is to generate output and either review it yourself or to send it for review, depending on your company policy.

To search for the map, see Search for an object in the Translation cycle. If you have an issue with output, the Output Analyzer provides you with a log file that identifies the fault.

Important: You cannot generate output for objects in maps that have a status mix of Authoring and Translation.
Note: You can generate any output that you normally would produce from a map except for a Build Manifest. In 7.0, it is not possible to generate localized content using a Build Manifest.

To generate output from a localized map:

  1. Open the translation manifest and, in the Page field, select a language manifest from the dropdown list.
  2. From the language manifest, click More Options icon.
  3. Select Generate Output.
  4. Select the output type from the dropdown list.
  5. (Optional) Select a ditaval for the output.
  6. Click Generate.
Go to the My Kits/Imports page to check the status of the output or download it.
