Checking out Documents

When all tasks of a project have been finished, the translated document can be checked out. This means that the document will be transformed back to its original format and stored outside Across. Subsequently, the checked-out document can be sent to the customer or be used for the intended purpose.

You can check out the source or target document at any time. Paragraphs that have not yet been translated will be displayed in the language of the source document.
