    • Consolidate/Split Type: You can choose from the drop-down:
      • Consolidate All Files: Check to consolidate all segments from different pages into one offline downloaded file, such as RTF, Xliff file.
      • File by File: Offline download file by file.
      • Split File per Word Count: For this option, the minimum word count of the Download Setting should be 1000.

    • NOT include fully leveraged file(s): Click here to NOT include fully-leveraged files. A file is fully-leveraged when all segments are 100% exact match or ICE
    • Include XML Node Context Information: When checked, it includes code in the download for context only. The option adds an additional ‘extradata’ attribute to the translation unit. This extradata contains the non-translatable skeleton of the source file which precedes the text for translation.
