Adobe Experience Manager Content Translation and Management Part 2
Once an Adobe Experience Manager website is set up for a multilingual website deployment (review: Setting up Adobe Experience Manager for Multilanguage Websites Part 1), website content can be localized into different target languages by exporting/importing the content using the built-in Adobe Experience Manager CRX Package manager.
CRX Package Manager is an Adobe Experience Manager tool for creating, editing packages, previewing package content, building, downloading and deleting packages. An Adobe Experience Manager package is a bundle in zip format that includes content along with other related data.
Package Manager can be accessed from Adobe Experience Manager welcome screen or directly using the following path: https://<server name>:<port number>/crx/packmgr/.
