Add or remove a language from ICA-AtoM


The current version of ICA-AtoM supports 14 languages:

  • Arabic
  • Dutch
  • English
  • Farsi
  • French
  • German
  • Greek
  • Icelandic
  • Italian
  • Japanese
  • Korean
  • Portuguese
  • Slovenian
  • Spanish


This means that:

  • Translators can translate content into any of these languages.


Access language setting

1. The language menu shows you the languages that are currently available in your ICA-AtoM application; the current (active) language is underlined.


2. To add or remove one of the supported languages, click the admin > settings tab on the main menu bar.


3. Click the i18n languages section to expand it; the list shows all the languages currently available in your ICA-AtoM application.


Add a language

4. To add a language, select one from the drop-down menu.

  • The drop-down menu shows all currently supported languages available for ICA-AtoM.


5. Click the add button.


6. ICA-AtoM adds the language and closes the i18n languages section; the added language will now appear in the language menu.


7. To continue adding languages, expand the i18n languages section and repeat steps 4 and 5 as required.


Remove a language

8. To remove a language, click the delete icon beside it in the list.


9. ICA-AtoM prompts you to confirm request. Click OK.


10. ICA-AtoM removes the language and closes the i18n languages section; the removed language no longer appears in the language menu.


11. To remove additional languages, expand the i18n languages section and repeat steps 8 and 9 as required.


12. Note that when you remove a language, existing translations of database content into that language remain in the application, but are not accessible.

  • If you add the language back (make it available in the language menu), the translations will be accessible again.


Notes

  • Support for Eastern language characters (e.g. Chinese, Japanese, Korean, etc.) is not installed by default in Microsoft Windows version previous to Windows Vista.
