3. Options: Export options are file format specific. Export Options available for all file formats include the following:
   • Use Source File Name: If strings were manually imported, Use Source File Name will export translations into a file with the same name as the originally imported file only adding a language indication. If multiple files were imported and this option is set, the strings included in the export will split into the same sets per file as they have been imported.
   • Only with Translation: This option only exports the translated strings, source strings are excluded from the export file.
4. File Specific Options:
   • Include Context URL: This option includes a direct link to the screenshot(s) on which a string or strings appears (where available.) This option is only available for .xliff.
   • Export Status: A string’s status can be set to Rejected, Needs Translation, Needs Review, Accepted, or any previously defined custom workflow status.. This information will be included in the .xliff export if Export Status is selected. This option is only available for .xliff.
   • Include Metadata: If this option is selected, the exported file will also contain any custom metadata fields associated with the string. This option is available for .xliff, .csv, .tsv, .xlsx (both single and multi-language excel files.)
   • Include Status & Comment: A string’s status can be set to Rejected, Needs Translation, Needs Review, Accepted, or any previously defined custom workflow status. This information will be included in the export if Export Status is selected together with the latest comment for a particular string. This option is only available for .csv, .tsv, .xlsx (excluding multi-language excel files.)
