Document! X is the only mainstream Tool that allows you to author multiple languages within a single project.
Define your Topics, Table of Contents, and Index Keywords once and manage each language you wish to localize to within the same project. Easily switch between locales and track localization tasks all from within Document! X.
Add a secondary locale to the Project
Switch between locales
To switch to another locale, use the Current Locale dropdown on the Project ribbon tab.
When you switch to another locale, Titles on the Project Explorer and Table of Contents Editor are shown in that locale and any new editors or project tools you open will open in that locale. The Properties window also shows localizable properties in the current locale.
When you are working in a secondary locale and a localization for the current locale cannot be located, HelpStudio displays a localization issue indicator next to the text from the Primary Locale so that you can easily spot the problem.
