If noone has already stated this: you would go to the file manager menu, then t for translation, then e for export.
It would ask you the drive, folder name, and filename of the file you're wanting to export. Then it'll ask you which file format you want to export as. Mine asks for ascii right away and you could probably press enter, but if you wanted another type you would press space with dots 3 and 4, to go through the list. When you've selected your file type, you'll be asked where you want to save the translated file. Hope I got that right, as I had to go back and go through it myself, cause I hadn't translated a file in a while. I hope that helps you.
