Supported file types

Counterparts Lite can open the following file formats:

.strings
Apple’s string table file format used in most Mac applications. Those files can be either a text file or a binary file. Counterparts Lite can open both text and binary variants. Note that when those files are in binary format comments are not present in the file and ordering is not preserved.
.xliff .xlf
XLIFF (XML Localisation Interchange File Format) is a standard format compatible with many localization tools. Counterparts Lite can open XLIFF files produced by other programs and allows editing of the translation strings.
