To Create Multilingual Drawings
If you install the required language group, you can use an English version of Creo+ to view, create, or edit drawings containing English and Asian drawing notes. In the following procedure, the file contains a drawing note with Japanese text.
1. Run Creo+ on a Windows operating system where the Japanese group is installed.
2. Before you start Creo+ set the LANG environment variable to japanese and the following configuration options to no:
Although you are running Creo+ in Japanese, the Creo+ user interface appears in English at startup.
3. Open the drawing containing the Japanese note. The note appears with the correct Japanese characters.
4. Add a drawing note in English and do not make changes to the Japanese note.
5. Save the file.
6. Open the drawing on a Japanese system. The English and Japanese drawing notes appear correctly.
