Translating forms offline

Hi Forms gurus -

 

I have a number of large forms that require translation.   The process for translation online is simple, but I was wondering if there was a way to export the primary language of the form in a format that could be translated into a handful of languages offline (through a CSV or Excel or even XLIFF) and that could then be imported back into Forms?

 

Many thanks!

    This is still a valid question, almost 3 years after it being posted... I was looking for a machine translation solution but could not find any in Forms, so this is the solution I found:

    1. Created a PDF of the form by "printing" the form to a PDF
    2. Opening the PDF in Word
    3. Translating the Word document using the Word Translate document feature
    4. Copy pasting the translated text (one question at a time) into a new form.

    If there are now better ways, do let me know :-)
