Trigger Export

View as Markdown
Enqueue an async export for one target language. Returns `202 Accepted` with `export_state=Pending`. Poll `GET /translate/document/jobs/{job_id}/export/status` until `export_state` is `Completed`, then download from `download_url`. - When `format` is omitted, the export uses the uploaded file's native format. - **PDF uploads** may optionally set `format` to `pdf`, `docx`, `html`, `txt`, or `epub`. - **Microsoft Office uploads** always export in the original format only (for example, xlsx in → xlsx out). - Optional `fit_line_height` / `fit_font_shrink` tune PDF/DOCX shrink-to-fit. - Returns `409` when an export for the same language and format is already `Pending` or `Running`.
