Setting up font support for Windows languages
If you are using Windows XP, or Windows Server 2003, to ensure that fonts used in a
FactoryTalk View application display correctly, regardless of the current language, install
font support for all of the types of Windows
languages the application will use. Depending
on your application, this means that you might need to enable font support for languages
that read from right to left, or for East Asian character sets.
The other operating systems supported by FactoryTalk View SE support all of the
necessary fonts by default. To make language switching work, you do not need to install
any Language Interface Packs (LIP), and your version of Windows Vista does not need to
support Multilingual User Interface (MUI).
Enabling font support for additional Windows languages
The steps for installing font support vary by operating system, and are not required for
Windows 8.1, Windows 8, Windows 7, Windows Vista, Windows Server 2012, or
Windows Server 2008.
To enable font support for additional languages in Windows XP , or
Windows Server 2003
1. In Control Panel, double-click the Regional and Language Options icon.
2. In the Languages tab, under Supplemental language support, select the appropriate
check box, and then click OK.
For details, see Windows Help.
Selecting a language for a new FactoryTalk View application
When you create a new FactoryTalk View application, you must select a language for the
application. The language you select becomes the default application language.
After setting up components for the application, such as data servers, HMI servers, and
graphic displays, you can export text strings in the application for translation. Then, you
can import translated strings for languages you add to the application.
To select a language when creating a new application
1. Start FactoryTalk View Studio, select an application type, and then click Continue.
2. In the New/Open Site Edition (...) Application dialog box, click the New tab
3. Type an application name, select an application language, provide an optional
description, and then click Create.
