Personal Communications User Interface Languages

It is important to understand how Personal Communications uses the capability for supporting multiple languages. Like other applications, Personal Communications can use any language within the language group for which the current system locale is set. As an administrator, you have the ability to change that locale, using the Windows® Regional Settings control panel applet.

There are several considerations to keep in mind:

• There is a default Personal Communications user interface language; this is set at installation, and applies to every user of the Windows® system.
  Note:

  This default is set to match the Windows® user default locale.
• The Personal Communications user interface language is a preference that is stored per user; thus, a shared workstation can support users of different languages.
• If a user does not have a user interface language preference defined, Personal Communications uses the Personal Communications default language for that machine.
• If the user's language preference cannot be displayed (because of a language group mismatch) the user interface is in the Personal Communications default language; a warning is displayed.
• If the Personal Communications default language is incompatible with the system language, English is used as the default.
• Each user in a client/server or Windows® Terminal Server (WTS) environments can have his own Personal Communications user interface language.
