XML file format

About the XML file format
Exported XML is in UTF-8 format and follows the XML Localization Interchange File Format (XLIFF)1.0 standard.
It defines a specification for an extensible localization interchange format that lets any software provider produce a
single interchange format that can be delivered to, and understood by, any localization service provider. For more
information about XLIFF, see www.oasis-open.org/committees/xliff/.
