# Export Translations to a CSV File

Do the following to export existing translations to a .csv (comma delimited) file.

1. Before exporting, ensure the following is true:

- You have at least one localized string to export.

- Your Designer Project is not in Test Mode.

2. Export translation languages by doing the following:
   1. Open a project if you haven't already.
   2. Project Localization
   3. Click the Export translations icon on the Localization Pane Toolbar.
   4. Select the languages that will be exported.

   5. Specify the Export Directory the file(s) will be exported to by using the browse button or the provided textbox. If any conflicting exported files already exist in the chosen export directory, the user will be prompted to confirm an overwrite.

   6. Click Export.

Successfully exported translation languages will be available as CSV files with the following naming format:: project_name.language.csv. For example, for a Designer project named Localization, an English translation would be exported as Localization.English.csv.
