Page export

You must have View Translation permission to access this feature. If you do not have this permission or are not sure, check the Access control and permissions settings or contact your Confluence administrator.

Since version 2.3.3 of the Easy Translator for Confluence this feature is no longer available with Confluence 7 or older. When using Confluence 7 or older the exported page will not contain any translations.


Export a page

Since version 1.9.0 of the Easy Translator for Confluence exported pages are automatically translated. But instead of translating the document from scratch the ECT only applies stored translations to the page being exported. This means no new translations are created by exporting a page and no additional costs are incurred by the ECT during a page export.

Follow these steps to export a translated page:

  1. Select a translation from the dropdown

  2. Open the action menu of the page right next to the translation dropdown

  3. Click on Export to PDF or Export to Word

The exported PDF or Word document should now be translated like the web page.

Due to technical limitations it unfortunately is not possible to translate the title of the exported document.


Exporting with third party apps

Using third party apps to export Confluence pages is not guaranteed to work with the Easy Translator for Confluence. This means when exporting pages with another app (not with the standard Export to PDF or Export to Word buttons provided by Confluence) the export might not contain any translations.

But apps making use of the so called storage to view transformer chain should be compatible with the Easy Translator for Confluence. For example the most popular third party app Scroll by K15t is compatible.


Exporting macros

Confluence and third-party macros included on a page are not guaranteed to be translated when they are exported. For example it is technically not possible to translate Draw.io macros within a page export, because the Draw.io graphics are converted to images which cannot be translated by the Easy Translator for Confluence.


Space export

Confluence also offers the possibility to export multiple pages of a space. (Space tools → Content tools → Export) The Easy Translator for Confluence currently does not support such space exports. This means all pages generated via space export will remain in the original language.
