This tutorial describes how to use the Language Manager to translate G-Lock
EasyMail interface into other languages. We used the translation to the French language as an
example.
Download and Installation
1. Download the Language Manager from this link http://www.glocksoft.net/.down/lmsetup.exe
Please, remember the folder
you installed G-Lock EasyMail to, for example: D:\Program Files\G-Lock
Software\G-Lock EasyMail 6\
By default you have G-Lock EasyMail in the native English.
The files you will use for translation - EMAdrBK.ntv.lng (address book),
DeliveryMonitor.ntv.lng (Delivery
Monitor), SentManager.ntv.lng (Sent Manager), bc.ntv.lng (Bounced Manager),
and EasyMail.ntv.lng (G-Lock EasyMail itself) - are located in the
Language folder in G-Lock EasyMail v6 directory:
...G-Lock Software\G-Lock EasyMail 6\Language
Loading Project
for Translation
1. Open the Language Manager.
3. Select the native language file from the ...G-Lock Software\G-Lock EasyMail 6\Language folder to translate.
Note: The EasyMail.ntv.lng project must be translated the first to enable "Select language" option in the EasyMail->Help menu
The project will be loaded.
Adding Language
1. Click on the File menu
2. Select "Create New Language"
3. Select the language you will translate the project into
4. Click OK
The selected language will be added to the project.
Translating Forms and Units
1. Select a cell in the column with your language
2. Click the mouse on the cell to make it available for editing
3. Type the translation to your language instead of
the English text
2. Do not translate the text in blue cells.
There are Forms and Units items in the drop down menu. After you translate all the items in the Forms project, double click the mouse on the Units from the menu to load the Units project.
Translate the Units items just like the Forms items.
After you translate all the items, we recommend that you
add them to the repository for further usage in the next project.
1. Select a cell in your language column
2. Press Ctrl+A on the keyboard to select all the cells in the column
3. Click the right mouse button on the selected items
4. Select "Add to Repository" from the menu
Saving Translated Project to a File
1. Click on the Save button to save the project to a file
The project will be saved to a file with the [language].lng extension, for example, EMAdrBK.FRA.lng
Loading Next Project
After the translation of the EMAdrBK.ntv.lng
project is complete and saved to a file, you can load the next project for
translation.
1. Click on the "Open Project" button
2. Select another .ntv.lng file, for example, DeliveryMonitor.ntv.lng
3. Click Open
The new project will be loaded.
For your convenience you can load the translated items
from the repository into this project.
1. Click the right mouse button on the cell in the column with your language
2. Select "Translate with Repository" from the menu
If this project contains the items that are already translated into your language, the Language Manager will load the translation from the repository.
Translate the Forms and Units items in the DeliveryMonitor.ntv.lng project.
After the translation of the Forms and Units is complete, please, verify whether all the items are translated. To do this:
1. Select Forms in the top field
2. Click the right mouse button on the right panel with your language
3. Select Show -> Untranslated
The Language Manager will show all the untranslated items under Forms. If there are any items, translate them.
Then verify the Units for untranslated items.
When all the items under Forms and Units are translated, save the project to the DeliveryMonitor.FRA.lng file.
Load the next project for translation.
When the translation of all the projects (EMAdrBK.ntv.lng, DeliveryMonitor.ntv.lng, SentManager.ntv.lng, BC.ntv.lng, and EasyMail.ntv.lng) is complete, you can see how G-Lock EasyMail interface looks in your language. To do this:
1. Open G-Lock EasyMail
2. Click Help -> Language
3. Select your
language from the menu
Sending Translated Projects to G-Lock Software
To send the translated files to us, please, do this:
1. Open G-Lock EasyMail 6 directory
2. Copy the files with the .FRA.lng extension (EMAdrBK.FRA.lng, DeliveryMonitor.FRA.lng, SentManager.FRA.lng, BC.FRA.lng, and EasyMail.FRA.lng). In your case the files will have the .[your language].lng extension.
3. Attach the files to an email message and send it to us at support@glocksoft.com.
