Reduce low-value production work
Let software handle extraction and replacement so your team can spend more time on review, QA, and final layout quality.
InDesign translation for DTP agencies
A faster IDML translation workflow for DTP agencies
Give DTP and localization teams a faster way to turn source InDesign files into translated IDML files for final layout review.
Works with exported IDML
Transl8ly accepts IDML files directly, which makes it practical for handoffs between designers, translators, and production teams.
Useful for overflow work
Use pay-per-translate credits for occasional overflow jobs, or subscribe when the workflow becomes part of daily production.
How the workflow works
1. Export IDML
Export the source InDesign document as an IDML file.
2. Translate
Upload the file to Transl8ly and choose source and target languages.
3. Review in InDesign
Download the translated IDML and check layout, terminology, and overset text.
