Overview

Convert segmented text units (aka paragraphs) to multiple text units, one per aligned sentence pair, for each target locale. If the TextUnit resource refers to another IResource or is a referent then pass it on as-is even if it has segments. It's possible these could be safely processed in the future, but it would take considerable effort to implement.

This step can be used to convert segmented paragraphs to text units with single segments. This is useful for steps such as Diff Leverage Step which require un-segmented text units.

Parameters

None.

Limitations

Using this step may prevent merging so should only be used in pipelines that do not require translated translation kits to be merged.
