Select the right language

  Previous topic Next topic JavaScript is required for the print function  

Most examples in this guide deal with texts in English. If you want to handle texts in Chinese or some other language, you need to choose the language in the main Controller.

 

choosing_language

If in the drop-down list (showing language_english) the language you need isn't available, click Edit Languages and choose the language you want:

 

finding_IGBO

and drag it to the right or click the button in the middle.

 

IGBO_chosen

You'll see an option to select that language as your "main language" (with which WordSmith will start up by default), or else just as an available language.

 

language_options

In this screenshot, English has been selected and some suitable choices for English have been made such as apostrophes allowed within a word, hyphens separating forms like self-conscious into two words and showing that Arial 10 is the default font, etc.

 

Finally, save your settings.
