FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I translate an Apple plist file online for free? expand_more

Upload your XML-formatted .plist file, choose a target language, and download the translated property list with all keys intact. Free, no account needed.

Are property <key> names modified during translation? expand_more

Never. <key> tags define structural identifiers in the plist dictionary. Only the text inside <string> values is translated.

Does it translate numbers or boolean values in the plist? expand_more

No. Native plist data types like integers, booleans (<true/>, <false/>), and dates are recognized and excluded from translation.

Does this support binary plist files? expand_more

Currently, structrans supports standard XML-formatted .plist files. Binary plists should be converted to XML using plutil before uploading.
