Target Language for Resources

Resources are created for a particular text language. The language for which these resources are tuned is defined in the Advanced Resources tab. You can switch to another language if necessary by selecting that language in the Target language for resources combobox. Additionally, the language listed here will appear as the language for any text analysis packages you create with these resources.

Important: You will rarely ever need to change the language in your resources. Doing so can cause issues when your resources no longer match the extraction language. Though rarely employed, you might change a language if you planned to use the ALL language option during extraction because you expected to have text in more than one language. By changing the language, you can access, for example, the language handling resources for extraction patterns, abbreviations and force definitions for the secondary language you are interested in. However, keep in mind that before publishing or saving the resource changes you've made or running another extraction, set the language back to the primary language you are interested in extracting.
