Multi-Language Project Updates and Translations (RH11)

I have a several projects that are multi-language. One in particular is translated in 20 different languages. Based on RoboHelp's suggested method for creating projects in multi-languages, I created the topics first in English, then made a copy of each topic selecting the desired language in the properties. However, now when the software changes, I have to make the same changes 20 times and it's very time consuming. My translators don't have RoboHelp so I can't send them the English and their language file for comparison and have them make the changes. Does anyone have any suggestions on simplifying this process?
In addition, when I send the .html files to the translators, I ask them to use Notepad, WordPad, or some other HTML editor to retain the formatting, links, etc. If they use Word, I loose all this information and have to copy and paste their text which is also time consuming. Has anyone had success with files translated in Word?  What application is recommended for translating .html files?

They take your English content, translate it into whatever languages you want and save the originals. Then the next time you give them the English content, they compare it with the original on file & only concentrate on what changes have been made, thus saving all the expense of translating the entire set over again. TRADOS is one of the big names out there – see http://www.sdl.com/products/sdl-trados-studio/ for their explanation of “translation memory”

  • Multi Language Forms - Show and Hide

    Hi
    Within a form in apex has anybody used ajax/css to display fields based on a language selection?
    For example be default it will just display English fields but if a user clicks on a Spanish button then both the English and Spanish fields are shown?
    Not sure if this is feasible in such as dev platform such as apex?

    Yes I have selected from the conditions menu 'Value of Item / Column in Expression 1 = Expression 2
    But am unsure what needs to be entered in the expression 1 and expression 2 fields.  The reason being is at the top of the form I have a radio button with two options under the label 'Bilingual' with 2 options Yes and No
    If they select Yes then it will show the fields in both languages English and French  (will I have to set the condition on each item on the page for the 2nd language) or if they select No it just shows the English fields.

  • Multi-language Help in a multi-language web app

    Hello!
    I had posted this on the RH HTML forum but removed that and
    posted here for a wider audience...
    ***Please note: this question is not specific to RH but is
    applicable now that RH 7 is unicode enabled. If you have experience
    that does not relate to RH, please share anyway!
    Once I have developed WebHelp (for example) in multiple
    languages, how do I connect the help files to the web application
    that the help is about? How does the correct language output get
    displayed? For example, the application (that the help documents)
    changes its interface based on browser language. Can the
    appropriate help content be displayed based on browser language?
    How is multi-language help generally implemented for an end user?
    And, equally important, how does context-sensitive help
    (mapping) work with multiple languages?
    I have never been involved in a multi-language development
    effort and so I have no experience to relate this to. Any guidance
    will be greatly (and gratefully
    ) appreciated!
    Kathy

    That's how our developers do it, but I just want to throw in
    one other detail. The help output for each language has to be in a
    separate directory. So if you have 5 languages, you'll have 5
    directories. It's up to the developers to code the app so it
    detects the browser language, then looks in the appropriate help
    directory when the user clicks your help link or icon.

  • DTW - Multi Language Translation

    Hi,

  • Screen dims and multi-language "restart" message appears

    Currently, every time Safari is used, the entire screen dims and a multi-language (German, Chinese, etc.) message comes on the screen saying that I must physically power down my machine and restart. No error message is given, nor are any other options allowed, as the keyboard and mouse are rendered useless.
    I have rebooted the machine several times, including powering down the cable modem, but the problem persists.
    This problem has occurred in the past, but seemed to clear itself, only to reoccur starting yesterday (23 Sep 05). I can't shake the feeling that this problem is more in the OS X arena than in Safari's, but testing does not seem to bear out my feelings - all other installed applications appear to run properly and this phenomenon of screen dimming with forced power down and restart does not occur with other applications.
    Any thoughts? Thanks! Bob Meyer.

    I suggest the following:
    Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions - Mavericks, Lion/Mountain Lion
    Boot to the Recovery HD:
    Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Repair
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported then click on the Repair Permissions button. When the process is completed, then quit DU and return to the main menu. Select Restart from the Apple menu.
    If you continue to have the problem, then reinstall the OS X Mavericks 10.9.2 Update (Combo) updater.

  • Multi Language Solution (not by use of "Translate Application")

    Hi All,
    I try to implement a "multi language" functionality into my APEX Application but want to avoid the "Translate Application" method.
    As I'm not very keen in JavaScript and PL/SQL Coding, I need your help.
    What I want to do:
    I have a table tbl_lang (var varchar2(20), lang_en varchar2(50), lang_de varchar2(50), lang_fr varchar2(50)).
    It contains the name of a variable "var" that shall be filled with the Item Titles in the preselected language (de, fr or en).
    The language can be chosen from a select list an dependent of the chosen language I do a "select var, lang_*en* from ... " or a "select var, lang_*de* from ... " and I fill my variable with the dependent language.
    Each Item on my Page has the variable set instead of a written Title.
    The Title of the Item Surname is for example &P2_LANG_SURENAME. and has the Value is "Surename" or "Vorname" or "Prénom".
    The Problem ist:
    I don't want to define a hidden Item for each Variable.
    Is it possible to read the translations from the tbe_lang and fill a bunch of variables or an array that I can use within the Apllication without binding it to a hidden Item?
    Best regards
    Thomas

    Hello Thomas,
    >> That menas if I want to change the original application I have to redeploy the language after each change!?
    I’m not sure what you mean by redeploy. The principle of the APEX translation mechanism is that you have your primary language application, which contains all your application logic. For each extra language, the APEX engine creates a language mapping application (a shadow copy as you call it) which contains a copy of your application logic and all the relevant translations to the underlying language. The translation mechanism includes a seed process which synchronize all the changes made to your primary language application (which is the only application you are working on) and also generate a XLIFF file that contains all the translatable components of your application. When you are done translating the XLIFF file, you can use the APEX translation mechanism to publish the new version and translation.
    Moreover, the APEX translation mechanism also allows you to translate all the APEX engine internal messages, which you can’t do by yourself.
    If by deployment you mean installing the multi-lingual application in a new APEX instance, working with the APEX translation mechanism means that you’ll need to install 3 (in your case) separate applications. The primary language application (which can also include all the supporting object) and simple import of all the other translated applications.
    From my own experience I can assure you that working with the APEX translation mechanism is much much more simpler, easier and efficient than the road you want to take, not to mention the far more simple (and central) maintenance options. Your way – specific PL/SQL code for each language – can be a maintenance nightmare.
    Also, bear in mind (and I believe this was your original question) that you’ll need to maintain a hidden item for every page component with a label, e.g. page items, buttons, tabs, report headers, etc. You’ll probably need to use some dynamic SQL functions otherwise you’ll have to deal with each component separately. In other words, you’re not only want to reinvent the wheel (as all of it has already been done by the development team) you are not dealing with very small and basic wheel, but something far more complicated.
    From your response to my questions, I understand that you never experience the use of the APEX translation mechanism. I think you should try it. You can use apex.oracle.com for that. Develop a simple application that includes all the component types you going to use (Forms, Reports, Tabular Forms, IR etc.) and see how you can handle it all. Only then, you should decide what road to take.
    As I said in my first post, what you are asking is probably doable. The question is whether you need to do it.
    Regards,
    Arie.

  • Ultrasearch and Portal Multi-language

    Does Ultrasearch provide any integration to the multi-language support in Portal? If a Portal user is working in French, does a Portal search return only the French content from the Portal Repository? Also, is there a way to specify language in the search?

    Does Ultrasearch provide any integration to the multi-language support in Portal? If a Portal user is working in French, does a Portal search return only the French content from the Portal Repository? Also, is there a way to specify language in the search? UltraSearch will crawl Portal and take into account language information. However, the support for Portal item and page translations is not yet fully implemented. This means that UltraSearch will only be able to crawl a multilanguage portal in one language at the moment.
    Portal search has full support for translations and will return content in the language of the user that initiated the search.
    In 902 there is no way to restrict the search by language other than by logging in to the Portal in a different language.

  • Help: Multi-SCO Project - Module does not update after reupload.

    hi, I created 4 courses in captivate 4 and repackaged them using the multi-sco projezct function in captivate 4. I uploaded the zip file on our LMS and then the developer went ahead to select assemble courses from lms to add two quizzes (not created with captivate) to make another course. Developer selects from a list of courses including ones from the multi-sco project. However when i went to update the Multi-sco files (since they were in capt 4 and now i update it with captivate 5 version), only 3 of the files are updating, one of the modules refuses to update itself. However, when i looked at the multi-sco project i uploaded on the lms it is updated all four courses, but in the new assembled course one of the modules refuses to update. I have tried updating all the files on the lms with the same name as tha particular course but it still doesnt work.
    Does anyone have any idea what is going on. And how i can fix it?

    yep same problem here
    i had this problem and got a replacement handset.
    i have had to do an update and got the same issue yet again.
    The funny thing is, is when i got my new handset i had to run the email setup application and it worked fine.
    now its failed and i have to boot in safe mode and wipe etc.
    Will someone sort this out???!! O2, Blackberry whoever. Shambles!

  • Unable to run bapis for project status update and date update together

    Hi Experts,

I need to do both Date update and status update in the same LOOP PASS   i am using the below mention bapi. when i am doing so i am getting an error Project 'A._____' has been currently processed by ID i.e. my id.
    I have tried putting  a wait for 2 seconds in the code but its still not working. please find the order below in which i am calling the bapi.
    Loop at itab.
    if  date_changed = 'X'.
          CALL FUNCTION 'BAPI_PROJECT_MAINTAIN'
          READ TABLE it_error WITH KEY message_type = c_e.

    Try to use
    SET UPDATE TASK LOCAL.
    before each BAPI call.
    Did you try to debug through your code, leaving sufficient time between BAPI calls? If it does work like that, then the above statement might help.

  • Win 8.1. Core language and multi-language support.

    HI,
    I've used a US developed program with multi-language support for years in Win XT and Win 7. As the program now supports win 8.1. I've upgraded to 8.1. and the new release of the program. However it will not work properly and the reason given is
    that my version of 8.1. has a different core language compared with what  the program uses and this version is not multi-language supported. Now I wonder if there are various versions of  the core language in 8.1. or is the core
    language unique, supported by various language packets for menu's, guiding texts, etc.  Why do I then need a multi-language supported program? Where can I put this question?
    Regards

    Hi Portal Content Management Gurus,
    I would like to know how to translate the text parts of the standard SAP provided iViews in order to support multiple languages?
    I tried the Translation Worklist Coordination and Translation Worklist facilities provided in the portal. But not able to figure out where I am making the mistake. I am not able to get the translated iViews. I also checked the "include dependent objects" option. But not able to find out where will the generated resource bundles will be available.
    Can any body guide me?

    Hi Saravanan,
    I just tried changing the browser language. I am not able to see the "Content Provided by SAP" folder itself under the "Portal-Content" directory.
    (1) Is there anything else I need to do in order to see that folder?
    And when I try previewing the iViews after changing the browser language, still the iView content is displayed in English.
    (2) Can I make a copy of this iView and edit change the language property to some other language say "German"? In that case, I will have to maintain multiple copies of the same object. But I tried creating a delta link copy of the object. But was not able to edit and change the language.
    (3) Or do I have to edit it in the par file of the corresponding iView?
    best regds,

  • Multi language support for reports and prompts labels

    Is there a way to configure reports prompts labels with session\presentation variables,
    in order to support multi language interface?

    Deepak,
    It works fine..i have tested.
    Nir,
    Here is the solution for your requirement
    Requirement1
    I want to label the listbox with X, where X is either 'Categories' or 'Products'.1.In your rpd, create a new session variable init block
    Name : DynamicName
    Query: select case when ':USER' = 'USER1' then 'REGION1' else
    CASE WHEN ':USER' = 'USER2' THEN 'REGION2' end end from dual
    Assign the above query’s result to a session variable; DISP_NAME
    2.Double click on the presentation column(in presentation layer) that is supposed to change dynamically->check the box ”Custom Display Name” -> Type in VALUEOF(NQ_SESSION. DISP_NAME)
    3.With the assumption that you already have created a prompt with the above column, login as USER1, you will see the prompt label as 'REGION1' (value is fetched from the session block query).Similarly login as ‘USER2’ and check the prompt label to show 'REGION2'
    This solves the first requirement.
    Requirement2
    On the dashboard I would like to present the title: 'Report by X', where X is either 'Categories' or 'Products'.1.Navigate to your report in answers
    2.Add a column with the formula, case when VALUEOF(NQ_SESSION.USER)='USER1' THEN 'Report by Categories' when VALUEOF(NQ_SESSION.USER)='USER2' THEN 'Report by Product' else 'Your custom/default title’ end
    3.Add a narrative view to the report (remove the existing title view) and the give the reference as the column added in step 2.Save the report.
    4.Logout and login as USER1, you can see the report title as 'Report by Categories' and for USER2 , it will be 'Report by Product'
    Let me know if this solves your issue.
    Rgds,
