Main Page > Translate ICA-AtoM application
Overview
ICA-AtoM is a multi-lingual application. This page is for project participants preparing the default translations of the application.
ICA-AtoM release 1.2 will support the following languages:
- Arabic
- Chinese
- Dutch
- Farsi
- German
- Greek
- English
- French
- Icelandic
- Italian
- Korean
- Portuguese
- Slovenian
- Spanish
There are two broad classes of information that need to be translated into all of the supported languages:
- User interface: User interface elements include field labels, column headers, screen titles, buttons, links and pop-up dialog boxes. These are the generic template elements that structure how the application content is presented on the user interface.
- Default content: Data that is included by default when the application is installed. This includes things like the default homepage content and picklist values that are stored in taxonomies such as level of description or note types.
Users of an ICA-AtoM application will still have the option to modify the default translations to suit their own purposes (as described in UM-5 Translate content/interface). The procedures on this page, however, are for the one-time translations that provide the application defaults.
Translation Instructions
- Translators will work with the internal XML file that ICA-AtoM uses to look up translations (XLIFF: XML Localization Interchange File). Translators can open this file in any text editor (e.g., notepad) or XML editor of their choice. When completed, Translators will email the XLIFF file back to Artefactual for us to integrate into the ICA-AtoM 1.2 release. Our deadline for receipt of XLIFF files is October 15, 2011.
