The Create Multilingual Data command copies the contents of the language folder you are editing to another language folder. This can be used to prepare a manual for localization.
From the main menu, select File → Create Multilingual Data for Project.

Set the source and target languages in the Edit Multilingual Data dialog box. Then click OK to copy the data.

After the data is copied, the results are displayed in a dialog box.
The copied folder is displayed in the Project window, allowing you to check its contents.
Use the drop-down list in the lower-right corner of the Project window to change the project language.
Note: You can edit in only one language at a time.
You can add folders for any combination of market and language that you require.
You can create language folders that are not supported by the editor by default by choosing the Add other language folder option in the list of target languages in the Create Multilingual Data window.
The dialog box for a new language is displayed. Name the folder according to the specified format. A folder is created with that name for the new language.
After creating a new language folder, you can copy the source language to the folder.
Note: Once you have created a new language folder using the Add other language folder option, be sure to prepare new localized versions of both the Viewer UI and the Viewer Help.
If no localized version of the Viewer help and UI are provided, an error is displayed, and you are not able to either preview or output your manual in binary format.
For more information, see Editing the Viewer Help and UI Data.
