Field
Description
Available Languages and Selected Languages
These fields let you choose the languages to publish. You must choose at least one language to publish. The Available Languages list shows the languages you can choose to include when publishing. The available languages are supplied by the translation target language configuration. The language choices override a publishing rule that also supplies a target language. Ensure that the language used to author the document is included in the Translation Support's Supported Languages preference value. Doing so will ensure that the language can be chosen in the Available Languages list.
Language-specific representations will be published in the order listed in the Selected Languages list. If Multilingual Output is checked, content for each selected language will be included in the representation in the order listed in the Selected Languages list.
Use the following buttons to manage languages being published:
An arrow point from the available languages to the selected languages. — Moves all selected languages from the Available Languages list to the Selected Languages list.
An arrow point from the selected languages to the available languages
— Moves all selected languages from the Selected Languages list to the Available Languages list.
An arrow pointing to the top of the list of selected languages
— Moves the selected language in the Selected Languages list to the top of the list.
An arrow pointing up — Moves the selected languages in the Selected Languages list one place up in the list.
An arrow pointing down — Moves the selected languages in the Selected Languages list one place down in the list.
An arrow pointing to the bottom of the list of selected languages — Moves the selected language in the Selected Languages list to the bottom of the list.
Automated Publishing
When checked, specifies that for any selected languages unavailable at publishing time, the representation will be assigned a status of Pending. View the status of your published jobs in the Representations/Annotations navigation table.
Representations will maintain their pending status until the first time they are republished after the language becomes available. (Availability is determined based on the values of the CompleteTranslationCheck and onContentHolderLinkFailed WVS Worker parameters. Refer to Service Worker Parameters.)
Multilingual Output
Specifies that the selected languages will be published in a single, multiple-language PDF representation. Content for each selected language will be included in the representation in the order listed in the Selected Languages list. The top-most (or primary) language will appear on any title page and be first in the representation.
More than one language must be selected for Multilingual Output to be enabled.
For content to publish in languages aside from the primary language, ensure that Edit > Set Multi Language is specified for the publication structure containing that content. Refer to Service Structure Editing for information on this setting.
The primary language will be reflected in the file name of the published representation. Details of the published output will be included in translation.xml.
Multilingual Output is not enable for bundle publishing.
