Generating documents in different languages

The Rational® Publishing Engine launcher allows you to generate documents in different languages.

Before you begin

You created templates with different languages and created their corresponding document specifications.

Procedure

  1. Open a document template which you created in Document Studio.
  2. Click RPE Launcher or if you are using the stand-alone RPE Launcher, click File > Open Document Specification and select a file. For example: demo.dsx
  3. In the Document Specification view, expand Templates and click Template. This template is the template which you opened. The Properties of the selected document specification displays.
  4. In the Properties panel, click translation and select the required language. The language list displays based on the number of templates created in different languages.
  5. In the Document Specification view, click Metadata.
  6. In the Properties view, click output locale and set the required language.
    Note: If the template translation property and the output locale property are not set, the document generation uses the current system locale language. The sequence is in the following order:
    1. Template translation property
    2. Output locale property
    3. System locale
  7. Click Document Specification > Generate Current Document.
  8. Open the document and verify the content.
