2 Languages in 1 folio ?

I'd like to create a folio where the user gets the choice of 2 languages in the beginning (Dutch & French)
After that he or she will be able to read and swipe trough the folio watching movies, playing sounds etc.
But, once chosen for Dutch or French the user must be unable while swiping trough the folio to come up with content from the other language...
I was thinking about MSO's inside of MSO's but that's kinda impossible i guess.
thx for your replies!

Two apps might be an easier choice.
Or I would use a blank page-sized MSO object on the bottom layer to prevent the user from swiping, and control their navigation with buttons so they don't stumble upon the wrong language.

Multi-language iPad app - Folio Builder

Hi!
I am working on a custom b2b iPad app using InDesign's Folio Builder and I need to have it in three languages. I know that during publication process it is possible to choose which languages are supported. But how to make the folio work in those languages?
Thanks!

That would be the easiest way. There's no way to automatically have the
content change.
BTW, someone moved this from InDesign to the DPS forum. Please keep any DPS
related inquiries here in the future.

Can you create an app using Adobe DPS, then pass the Folio to a programmer to add interactivity?

I'd like to know if I can create an app using Adobe DPS, then pass the folio to a programmer to add advanced interactivity that DPS doesn't provide. I would like the programmer to use either XCode or Android SDK because it is a standard, but they can also use C#, JavaScript, and several other coding languages. The folio would serve the purpose of a tight digital comp for the programmer.

Thanks for your help Bob! I found this article on the Adobe site. Figured I'd share it. http://helpx.adobe.com/digital-publishing-suite/help/import-html-articles.html

Need a custom viewer

OVERVIEW: I am a high school teacher in Costa Rica, Central
America. I am producing a series of lessons in Spanish on using
Microsoft Office applications. These lessons are being produced
using Camtasia Studio 4 in swf format. The lessons are to be
distributed to students on a CD to be viewed on "public" computers
(school, work, Internet Cafe) where no files can be uploaded to the
computer.
The minimum system available to the students is:
Windows 95 or better
166mHz Pentium processor
32mb RAM
16-bit color SVGA display card
Sound card
4x CD-ROM drive
Speakers
REQUIREMENT: I need to include on the CD a custom viewer that
will run from the CD and allow the student to view the lessons.
This viewer has to be a fixed custom size (small enough to fit in
the corner of the screen so that the student can view the lesson
and make entries on the application, such as Excel). The viewer has
to "stay on top" so that the student can make entries in the
application without the viewer disappearing. The viewer also has to
be customized with DVD/VHS type buttons like PLAY, PAUSE, BACK,
FORWARD with the buttons labeled in Spanish.
PLATFORM: Windows 95 through XP.
I am not a programmer. I have talked to several programmers
about creating this viewer in Zinc and mProjector and I am told
that these programs create applications that required high speed
CPU's and a lot of memory. Several have recommended Director
because it can be used to create an application that will run on
lower level computers.
I have a lot of students who want to learn. The lessons I
have created are good and I need a way to deliver them to the
students. Is there someone out there who is a Director programmer
who would be interested in contributing their knowledge and
expertise to help with this project?
Additional details, sample files, etc. are available upon
request.

There is option called supported language in app builder. iTunes displays the languages in which the viewer app is available. The viewer interface is translated into multiple languages, but your folio content most likely isn’t. Select at least one language in which your viewer should appear.
If you want content in French, in that case you need to create content in French language and that would be a separate app.
With DPS single edition you can create only one single issue app and can update same within one year. You need to purchase another DPS single edition license.
You can purchase CCM subscription, in which you can create unlimited single issue apps.

Help- Urgent- Multi-folio app not showing all languages

I created a multi-folio app in 6 languages. English the default. English shows up in app store but all the other folios for German, Italian etc don't show up. They are all published and public. I changed my ipad to Italian and I still dont' see Italian as an option. The English showed up. I also submitted the app under all 6 languages when building in App Builder and then created all the language profiles in Itunes connnect.
What's weird now that I think about it in Adobe Publisher online there is nowhere to specify a language or when I uploaded the folios there was no way to specify a language. So I think the problem is that Itunes doesn't see the other 5 languages? I just can't figure out what is wrong here and there is no documentation on the web or from adobe.
Please help as my client is going nuts as am I.
Post here but feel free to email me directly as well as this is urgent.
[Edited at request of poster]
Thanks!

Thanks for responding. I'm trying to follow you. Right now only english shows in the viewer but there are 6 folios. There is a different folio for each language, all published and all apart of the app, same ids etc. So, I guess what you are saying is the only way to get those languages to show up is to use is to use filters?
My understanding was if I created a multi-folio with 6 folios they will all show up. But right now only one is showing up for English. All the otherlangues don't show up in the viewer. I have no idea why? Shouldn't all the languages show up? I'm been trying to figure out where is the missing setting.
If you create a multi-folio all folios should show up for everyone regardless of language, right?
Creating different app for each language is not an option. They spent thousands for the professional account to do this. There must be a setting somewhere I'm missing.
I just looked up filters. Was I supposed to use that for the other folios?
Thanks again for helping.

Someone who have advice for a folio production in many languages

I'm sitting right now in the planning stages for dps which will be published in at least 18 languages.
Thinking now of a multi-folio viewer where there is a folio for each language. Does anyone have a better solution?
Does anyone have any advice? maybee examples of other dps in many languages? We have a Professional Edition.
Are grateful for all tips and advice
/Ake

This has come up a few times before. You can use the filter feature of DPS to apply a language to each of your different folios, and then use the filter UI in the app (or via a custom store/library) to restrict the list of issues to just the language the reader cares about.

Problems in indesign cs5.5 with extension folio producer.

I can't continue using the folio producer. Ask me to update but when i go to update only find for cs6 or cc. I found a updater to cs5.5 called adobe digitalpublishingdigitalpatch. I can upgrade but when i start folio builder and he ask to enter id of adobe like always says that server unk and dont work.
Chat from support says that cant give me support for old versions and give me a lint to the forum. Can anyone help me? Sorry for my english but is not my first language (neither second).

And dont work any more with cs5.5? I am ok that adobe dont support anymore but then why compel to upgrade to continue working in cs5.5. Let the old version working in an old version of cs. Now we are ending first quarter of course and we cant continue with class. Its a big problem.

App binary file does not correspond to folios in Adobe Viewer

I created an app in several different language versions, all connected to the same multi-layer/lingual InDesign files. In Adobe Viewer they look and work fine, however Apple just approved the English language binary update and the app is entirely in Spanish. I tried re-exporting the .ipa file from a previous version (one that was already published in English albeit with bugs- hence the update submission) and this too shows in Spanish. I tried re-saving all InDesign files with the English language layer turned on and exporting a new version, but once again it shows in Spanish. My client is understandibly very upset as the app is time-sensitive and if we have to wait another week for Apple approval we are in big trouble.
What is going on and how can I fix it?

Ok, I'll try it, but I don't understand why this happened in the first place. The English app was ready to be exported before the Spanish version had been sent to "create app," and so in my understanding the exported file should have coincided with what I see in the viewer.

Are you making a Single Edition application? If so simply changing the layer state and redownloading the application isn't enough. You have to go to the Create App menu item again and go through the App Builder wizard for it to pick up the changed files.

Multi language pages

Afternoon All,
I have seen discussion on here regarding multi language pages and it appears that there is not an easy solution other than to have seperate apps.
Obviously many do not want this and have seen that a page could through overlays and MSO have user select their language and the page info load depending on their choice HOWEVER this means that each time the page is loaded they will have to re-select their language. Is is ALWAYS the case that the page reloads every time and no way of forcing it to stay as it was when previously loaded. Quite often when looking through ipad apps a page has a great animation when loaded BUT you dont really wnat to see it more than once...
Thanks very much in advance..
If this is not possible with dps is there a solution ???? ie with html etc etc
Thankyou

There really isn't a clean way to do this within the folio. You are better off publishing separate folios for each language and using the filtering features in the library to control which language versions are shown.

Same article, different languages help!!!

Hi,
I have a project for a client which requires one article per folio (4 folios in total), each article has two language optins, English and Chinese.
The problem I'm having is that when you get to the end of the first article, (lets say the English version), if I continue to scroll the Chinese version automaticaly apperas. What I need to happen is the language options to only be chosen via the language buttons I've set up. So in essence hiding one language article from the other until it's called for.
Does anyone know how I can achive this?
Cheers
L
P.S this is my first project with DPS so bare with my lak of knowledge.

Hi Christophe,
Thanks for your reply.
The design is a very simple, it's simply two identical articles but in different languages.
So it's not really buttons, the problem is that I need the English article not to continue into the Chinese article while scrolling.
But thanks I will look through the tips link you sent and see if I can solve it.
Cheers

EPUB, .PDF, or .Folio for iPad Book?

I am attempting to convert a bilingual childrens book into an iPad Viewable app but I find much of this confusing.
There is English and Hmong text on each page... Is there a way I could create the digital book so the user could select which language would be read to them as they turn the pages? Or would I only be able to have it read in one or the other? I could have buttons on each page that play each language though right? With what types of publications would I be able to accomplish which task? Any other options?
Also, must I create a .folio in order to have the document viewable horizontally and vertically as the user turns the ipad, (as In I create two versions of each page) Or can I do that with other exported file types?
Finally, If you have a link to the most helpful resource on any of this I would greatly appreciate it.
Thank You for your time,
Ryan

You should ask questions relative to creating folio files to the Adobe Digital Publishing Suite Forum:
http://forums.adobe.com/community/dps
There are severe limitations to using PDF files on iPads because the PDF readers are very immature. Most of the applications don't support interactivity. Here are two postings I did on PDF readers:
For Interactive PDF, Not All Readers Are Equal
A Much Improved Adobe Reader for Tablets Appears
EPUB files currently only support Latin languages. When I did an EPUB file that used Sanskrit, I had to rasterize the language (it was only short sections). InDesign CS5.5 or CS6 would let you choose the image resolution up to 300 ppi. Of course, you could then not interact with the text because it would be a picture.

UPDATE: Install new Folio Builder panel

The Folio Producer tools on the web were updated July 21. Please update your Folio Builder panel to make sure that it's in sync with the web client. The links for downloading the 1.1.2 update will appear on the main DPS installer pages:
Mac OS: http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/product.jsp?product=172&platform=Macintosh
Windows: http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/product.jsp?product=172&platform=Windows
Note that there is a difference between installing the new Folio Builder panel and updating the authoring tools. Whenever there is an update to the web client, you should update the Folio Builder panel. However, when the new version of the authoring tools (Overlay Creator panel and plugin) becomes available, you have a choice of updating the authoring tools or continuing to use an older release. For example, you may want to continue using an older set of authoring tools so that you can continue to work on folios for a custom viewer that you created, and you don't want to update that viewer app in the store every time a set release comes out.
The v14 authoring tools will be available later, when all the viewers are approved in the stores. The new version of the Viewer Builder app is scheduled for release early next week. You'll be able to specify languages and use in-app billing for Android viewers.
When you update your Folio Builder panel, you will be able to do the following:
* Re-order articles in the Folio Builder panel by dragging and dropping
* Unshare folios with individuals
* Upload large articles (the limit increased from 100 MB to 2 GB)

OK, I've done this.
To test what's happening for sure, I have uninstalled and re-installed time and time again, step by step. Here's what I get:
1. install Digital Publishing Suite: I can sign in to Folio Builder
2. install patch 1.0.1: I can sign in to Folio Builder
3. install patch 1.1.1: I can sign in to Folio Builder
4. install patch 1.1.2: I cannot sign in to Folio Builder
Here are the messages I get when I try to sign in with 1.1.2. It's always one or the other, at random.
On my Mac at home, I can sign in without problem. Could it be a firewall issue with the Windows computers at the office? If the sign-in system has changed, please tell me what Adobe has done so that I can communicate this to our IT support.
In the meantime, I have downgraded to 1.1.1 so that I can continue working with DPS.

Webviewer for multiple Folio

Hello
I have created 3 Folio-Issues which belong together (language versions)
In the app store I have created a multiple folio app. Thats fine.
But how to place them all under the same admin account (ID) to show them up in a iframe?
I only managed to show one: kabanews.codeserver.ch
Thanks for any help.
Oliver

Its not possible to show all three folios inside the same iframe. If you are hosting your web viewer yourself, you can customize to have three different buttons on your website that directs the customer to each of the three different folios.

Problema con folio builder

Ho un Mac con InDesign 5.5 perchè quando apro folio builder mi appare "errore#3115"? Cosa devo fare per risolvere il problema?

For error #3115, remove the temporary files stored in the following location:
[username] > Library > Preferences > StageManager.{numbers} > Local Host.
I'm not sure what the pathname is in non-English languages.

I cannot get folio builder to work in CS6 InDesign.

I cannot get folio builder to work in InDesign. I have updated InDesign and uploaded a new all language CS6 plugin for InDesign apps but still the program says I don't have the necessary files and redirects me to the plugins I already downloaded. I am not certain what is wrong.

DPS questions should be asked in the DPS forum. I've moved your question there.
