XLIFF (XML Localization Interchange File Format)
Definition
An XML-based format (OASIS standard) for exchanging localization data between tools. XLIFF 2.0 stores source and target text pairs along with metadata like translation state, notes, and inline formatting. It's the primary data exchange format in the localization industry.
How this shows up in leapCAT
leapCAT returns XLIFF 2.0 when teams need to hand work to clients, partners, or downstream vendors without rebuilding the file from scratch.
