Create a Language File

To create a language file, open the Translation Tool from the PDFCreator folder. A window appears with four columns. Below is a list of the columns and what their function is:

  • Section: This column tells the user what area of the application the text is in. This column is strictly informational and is not changeable.
  • Key: This column tells the application where to place the text in the program. This column is strictly informational and is not changeable.
  • Template Text: This column contains the text that you will be translating into other languages. This column is not changeable.
  • Translated Text: This column is where you will place the translated text for your language. When you click on a row, a small box will appear so you can enter your text.

If you want to translate from a language other than English, go to File menu and click on Open Template File. In the next window, choose the language that you would like to translate from.

There are 330 different keys to translate in PDFCreator. Once all the keys have been translated, save the file to the languages folder in the PDFCreator program folder. The file should be saved as a .ini file.
