Localizing text
You can localize display text for object types and fields, and for a variety of
application objects and custom return values. You can manage localized text that displays to users
for predefined object types, object fields that are supplied by IBM
OpenPages® with Watson™ or that you create, and application
objects.
Locale codes
The OpenPages with Watson
application provides translation support in several languages for predefined object text. Each
supported language has a corresponding locale code that is listed under the object text. The locale
code consists of a language code (for example, fr for French) and a country or
region code (for example, FR for France).
The following table lists the supported languages with their corresponding locale code.
| Language | Locale Code |
|---|---|
| German | de_DE |
| U.S. English | en_US |
| U.K. English | en_GB |
| Spanish | es_ES |
| French | fr_FR |
| Italian | it_IT |
| Japanese | ja_JP |
| Brazilian Portuguese | pt_BR |
| Simplified Chinese | zh_CN |
| Traditional Chinese | zh_TW |
| Report Design Language Note: Users authoring reports in the reporting tool
must select this language prior to creating or modifying reports.

The default language for object text that has not been translated is U.S. English.
You can globally set a default language in which the application user interface is displayed to users and optionally enable auditing of translation label changes. For details see Set localization options.
