Introduction

XTM allows in-context translation preview, enabling you to view the translated content of the website layout as you are working on it. Additional content, such as graphics and style sheets, is sent to XTM to allow for opening the page that is being translated in the XTM Visual Mode.

It is enabled in XTM by default for the following file formats: “HTML”, “XML”, “InDesign”. However, as for the content coming from AEM, a special configuration needs to be done. In order to configure XTM Visual Mode for AEM, go to the Enable Visual mode in XTM Workbench using section in our AEM documentation and select the desirable method.


Guidelines

In case of any problems with previewing your content on the XTM side, considering you have done all the configuration steps mentioned in the Introduction section correctly, adhere to the following guidelines:

  1. First of all, ensure that your page renders without any issues in the “View as published” mode (for example, http://localhost:4502/content/wknd/language-masters/en/errors/404.html?wcmmode=disable). In case of issues, XTM preview will simply not work, as the page does not render at all. The configuration on the AEM side needs to be fixed.

  2. Check if you can create a manual preview archive, by appending the following suffix to the page: “.xtmpreview.zip” (for example, http://localhost:4502/content/wknd/language-masters/en/errors/404.xtmpreview.zip). In case of issues, contact the XTM Support team, by creating a proper ticket, and provide logs from the above operation.

  3. Check if the XTM preview produces expected outcome by unpacking the archive and serving it on a local web server. Running it directly without Apache will not work due to the use of absolute paths used in the files.

  4. Run the translation project with a single page. Start it and wait for the preview file to be sent over to XTM. In case of issues, contact the XTM Support team, by creating a proper ticket, and provide logs from the above operation.
