When you export a form, IBM® Marketing Operations creates a form archive zip file that contains a form properties file for the form for your locale. You can create a copy of the properties file for each locale your organization supports and translate the group names, field names, descriptions, and help tips into the appropriate language for each locale. If the form uses lookup tables and the database contains localized versions of the lookup tables, you can edit the properties file for a locale to reference the correct lookup table for that locale.
where <form_name> is the name of the form, and
<locale> is a locale code. The following locale codes are recognized.
You can also localize a form for a locale by having a user with that locale as his or her default locale open the form and manually edit the names and descriptions. When the user saves the form Marketing Operations saves the translations entered by the user and they display for other users with that default locale. However, this process is more time consuming and is generally recommended only when the number of forms and the number of supported locales are small.
When a user displays a form, Marketing Operations uses the properties file for the first locale in this list for which a properties file exists.
