Translate XLIFF Files Online - Segments, States & IDs Preserved

Need to translate an XLIFF file without losing segment IDs, translation states, or developer notes? ForgeFile is an AI-powered XLIFF translator that converts your localization files into 100+ languages while preserving every trans-unit ID, segment state, context note, and placeholder. Whether it's a web app, a mobile project, or an enterprise platform, your translated XLIFF is CI/CD ready and imports directly into your build pipeline.

How ForgeFile Translates XLIFF Files

Our translation engine understands the XLIFF standard natively. When you translate an XLIFF file, ForgeFile:

• Parses trans-units, segments, and groups - preserving IDs, states, and metadata
• Reads context notes and source text to deliver accurate, context-aware translations
• Writes translations into target elements while maintaining the original XLIFF schema

The result is a valid XLIFF file you can import directly into your TMS, CAT tool, or CI/CD pipeline - no manual segment editing needed.

Full XLIFF 1.2 & 2.0 Support

ForgeFile handles both XLIFF versions with their specific semantics:

• Trans-unit IDs and segment IDs are preserved exactly
• Translation states (new, translated, reviewed, final) are maintained
• Context notes, developer comments, and match quality attributes stay intact
• Inline elements (bpt, ept, ph, x, mrk) and placeholders are protected
• Source and target language attributes are updated in the file header

Built for Dev Teams, LSPs & Continuous Localization

ForgeFile handles the XLIFF workflows localization professionals rely on:

• Software Development Teams - pre-translate XLIFF exports from Xcode, Android Studio, or i18n frameworks
• Localization Service Providers - process client XLIFF files at scale with consistent quality
