'''Translators''' convert the content to the languages defined. 

As a translator, you translate the files as agreed and then make the changes requested by the reviewer.

Use your '''translator user account''', which was created during project set-up. Contact your Project Manager if you do not have one.

Use '''[[My Activities]]''' to track the progress of your activites.

Before beginning, check the [[System_Requirements|software requirements]].

==Translation Overview==
# You are informed by email when a '''translation activity''' (often named '''Translation 1''') is ready for you. You can then accept the activity, translate the content and mark the activity as complete. 
# You are informed by email when the review is complete and a new translation activity (often named '''Translation 2'''). You can then accept the activity, make the review changes and mark the activity as complete.  
# You are informed by email when the LSO review is complete and a new translation activity (often named '''LSO''' or '''Translation 3''') is ready for you. You can then accept the activity, make the final review changes and mark the activity as complete.  

You can work either '''online''' with GlobalSight's own editing tools (''Pop-up Editor'' and ''Inline Editor'') or '''offline''' with another tool. Working online is often easier, but can be slower depending on your network connectivity and the size of the files.
