How to keep specific rows untranslated in Excel files
Step-by-step instructions to translate Excel files while preserving certain rows
-
Start by preparing your Excel file before uploading it to Lara. If you want to keep specific rows untranslated, you need to hide or protect those rows in the XLSX file. This ensures they remain unchanged during translation.
-
Once the file is prepared, go to the Translate Documents tab in Lara and drag and drop your Excel file, or click Browse file to upload it.
-
Lara will analyze your document and display details such as file name, language detected, and number of characters. Choose the target language from the dropdown menu.
-
Click Translate into [target language] to start the process. Lara will translate all visible rows while keeping the hidden or excluded ones intact.
-
When the translation is complete, download your file. The untranslated rows will appear exactly as they were in your original XLSX file - you just need to unhide them!
