Localizing template descriptor files

Complete the step Copy template content files before you perform this step.

After you copy the template files to a template locale folder, you create localized versions of the template descriptor files.

It is important to understand that localizing template descriptor files serves a different purpose from that of translating template content files. For example:

• Localizing the subject context object in an email template descriptor file enables a PolicyCenter user to see the subject line of that email template in the localized language in PolicyCenter.
• Localizing the content of an email template enables the recipient of that email to see its contents in the localized language.

The manner in which you create localized document template descriptor files is different from the process for creating localized email and note template descriptor files. See the following topics for details:

• Localizing document descriptor files
• Localizing email and note descriptor files
