IMPORTANT NOTES

The

#

symbol

Where you see the

#

symbols in the text you are editing they must be the same symbol and in the same place and of the same number.

For Example if I want to translate Line 11 from English to Greek the original text looks like this

Zone ## Text

The Translation will be

Ζώνη ## Κείμενο

The ? symbol

The same rule applies to the

?

symbol where this is present in the text it must be in the translated text in the same format and the same number of times

For example if I want to edit Line 002 from English to Greek the original looks like this

Enter Code > ??

The translation will look like this

Εισάγετε Κωδικός > ??

Once all of the translations have been completed save the file. By default this will be saved in the Languages Subdirectory of

Wintex.

Creating a New Language .DLL file

Once you have translated some or all of the text (you don’t have to translate all the text in one go), you need to create a Language

DLL file. This operation only needs to be performed once. Before you create the DLL you need to select the Program Execution

(PE) File. Click on File|Select PE file… and select the Wintex.EXE file as shown:

Now click on File|Create DLL this will create a language DLL file. Note: The “Create DLL” option is only enabled if your language is selected, to select your language click on any cell in your language column.

Once the DLL has been created you can test your translated file by running Wintex and going to Setup|Language and selecting the relevant language.

Continue to translate the text, when you want to test your work click on File|Save Language then click on File|Synchronize DLLs.

This will update the language DLL and will allow you test the updated file in

WINTEX

Notes for Translation

Accelerator Keys:

Most Windows menus and buttons have shortcut key that can be accessed by pressing the ALT key followed by the underlined letter of menu or button. For example the Accounts menu can be selected by pressing ALT followed by A. The strings in the language file will have the ampersand (&) character before the letter that will be underlined, so when you look at the text for the

Accounts menu you see that it is written as “&Accounts”. If you want to use the ampersand character in the string then you must insert two. For example the Send PC Time & Date menu option is displayed in WINTEX as “Send PC Time & Date” (shortcut = T), the text in the language file is written as “Send PC &Time && Date”.

Formatted Strings:

Some strings within the language file have special format specifiers, all specifiers start with the % character, for example “Control

Timer %d”.

%d is used to specify that a number will be inserted in the string, e.g. “Control Timer %d” can be displayed as “Control Timer 3”.

%.2d is used to specify that a two digit number will be inserted in the string, e.g. “Zone %.2d” can be displayed as “Zone 02”.

%.3d is used to specify that a three digit number will be inserted in the string, e.g. “Zone %.3d” can be displayed as “Zone 002”.

%s is used to specify that a string will be inserted in the string, e.g. “Do you want to save the account "%s" ?” can be displayed as

“Do you want to save the account "My Test 816 Panel" ?”

It is very important that the format specifiers remain included when the string is translated.

Future Versions of WINTEX™

It is very important that once the translation is complete, that the language file is emailed back to Texecom this is so that when future versions of Wintex are released, the language files can be refreshed to include any new strings. If the file is not sent back you will have to translate all text again when next revision of

WINTEX is released.

The language file is “Wintex.XXX.lng” where XXX is the country abbreviation code as shown at step 5, for example the Spanish abbreviation code is ES so the language file name is “Wintex.ES.lng”
