Datacap provides language
support for many countries and regions around the world. You use language
codes to set the locale that is associated with the language and regional
settings on the documents that are processed by your application.
The Recognition Engine actions use the locale property
to assign locales to the node to which the action is bound if the
engine-specific recognition language settings are not set. For example,
if the rrSet(en-US,@D.hr_locale) action is bound on a Document node,
that node and its child nodes use the English US (en-US) locale. Regardless
of the locale setting on the application level or in the DCO. Recognition
engines do not necessarily support all of the languages that are specified
in the following language tables.
Use the language codes in
the following tables to set the locale on Datacap actions.
