Unicode text file format
Text strings exported for the selected application language are saved in a text file in
Unicode format.
For network distributed applications, text strings from each HMI server in the application
are exported to separate text files. The file name format is <application>_<area>_<HMI
server>_<RFC1766>.txt, where:
 <application> is the name of the application.
 <area> is the name of the area.
 <HMI server> is the name of the HMI server containing the exported text strings.
 <RFC1766> is the RFC1766 name associated with the language selected for the
export operation.
For local applications, which contain only one HMI server, text strings are exported to a
single, Unicode text file with the format <application><HMI server><RFC1766>.txt.
For information about the format and schema of Unicode text files, see page 13-17.
Working with text strings exported to an Excel spreadsheet
Text strings exported for all languages in an application are saved to a Microsoft Excel
spreadsheet. This lets you translate or modify multiple languages at the same time.
To ensure that the spreadsheet can be imported successfully after it has been modified,
give the information in this section to translators.
The following illustration shows the format of the exported spreadsheet.
In FactoryTalk View Studio, in the Language Configuration tool, the Add Language dialog box
provides a list of Windows languages and their RFC1766 names. For information about how
to open the Add Language dialog box, see page 13-9.
