Translating Text to a Target Language

This topic describes the procedure to translate text to different target languages.

Cordys users spread across different geographies need to cater to the demands of the local and regional language preferences so that business is smoothly conducted. To serve the needs of its users, Process Platform provides translation support. The text used within a User Interface and Business Process Model can now be translated into a preferred language using the Translation Editor.

1. In the Workspace Documents, right-click the required <Document> and select Translate. For information on the translatable artifacts and their associated documents, refer to Artifacts with Translation Support.

   To provide translation at the project-level, right-click the <Project> and select Translation > Translate.

   The Translation Editor - <document name> appears. It contains a table that lists all translatable labels available in the document or project. The labels are listed in the language specified for the project, and must be translated into the specified target languages. The table also lists the identifiers for each label.

2. Make the appropriate modifications.
   
   • Click (Language Settings) to add or delete target languages. Alternatively, you can use the Column Chooser to hide or display the target language columns in the table.
   • Right-click a column and select Change Language to change the Language.

     Note:
     The feature that enables changing the translation languages in columns of the Translation Editor is useful in cases where the correct Project language was not set earlier or the Project language is unknown.

   • Select an identifier and click in the toolbar to view the documents that use the identifier.
3. Specify the appropriate translations for the labels in the Translation Editor - <document name> window.
4. Click (Save) to save the changes.
5. Publish the document.
