Magic Translate generates translations and localized product copy directly inside of Ditto in accordance to your locale-specific style guide rules.
Generate your localized product copy
Magic Translate will ingest your base text to generate a localized copy according to the target locale assigned to the variant. By default, Magic Translate treats your base text as English. If your base copy is written in another language, set a the base locale on your project or library so translations use the right source locale. If you have a matching locale-specific style guide applied to this project, its rules will be used during the generation to produce copy to enforce those content guidelines.

Select a text item, go to its variant tab, and click Add variant
Choose the variant and make sure it has a locale assigned to it, then click Save
The Translate button will appear under your text — click it to generate the localized copy
