XLIFF 2.0¶

Added in version 5.15.

Merknad

Support for this format is under development. Some features might not yet be available and the behavior can change between releases. Feedback from testing is welcome.

Merknad

XLIFF 1.1 and 1.2 is a different format and is not compatible with XLIFF 2.0.

XML-based format created to standardize translation files, but in the end it is one of many standards, in this area.

XML Localization Interchange File Format (XLIFF) 2.0 is currently only supported as bilingual.

Weblate supports XLIFF in several variants:

XLIFF 2.0 translation file: Simple XLIFF file where content of the elements is stored as plain text (all XML elements being escaped).
XLIFF 2.0 with placeables support: Standard XLIFF supporting placeables and other XML elements.
