Localize a chapter

Once you upload a chapter for localization, all the metadata such as Frames, Bubble, and Transcriptions will be automatically generated. This enables the Studio to create editable text boxes in the areas that contain text, allowing you to start inputting translations right away.

With each editable text box, you have the flexibility to fully customize the text value, styling, and position to ensure accurate and visually appealing translations.
