XTM Visual mode in XTM Workbench supports the following formats:

InDesign files (IDML is recommended)

HTML

MS Office Word files (e.g. DOCSX)

InDesign is a paid feature and requires a special connector with XTM Cloud. Contact the XTM International Sales team for more information by writing to the following email address: sales@xtm.cloud.

To do so, create a suitable ticket issue request for the XTM International Support team and request for assistance: support@xtm-intl.com.
