For Adobe Experience Manager translation projects, when users start the translation process, a copy of the root of the content to be translated is created in the target language root, which will be updated after the translation process has finished. Users can also add more content to be translated or update a specific group of assets that were previously translated. Additionally, users can work on content without creating a translation project, but for this blog, we will focus on the creation and workflow of translation projects.<\/p>\n<h2>Steps to Adobe Experience Manager Translation<\/h2>\n<h4><strong>Copying Assets to New Languages<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>When you are creating a copy of content in a new language, you will have three options:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Create structure only.
