templates in/for multiple languages
Hi,
I have a template with content that can be in 3 languages. The titles and the text in the template has to change for every language (obviously) but the layout has to stay the same. At the moment I have three templates: report_nl.dot, report_de.dot and report_en.dot. But every time the layout needs tweaking I need to do that in all three templates. Now the number of languages will probably increase so I'd like to automate it a bit. Ideally I'd want one template, that asks (upon 'instantiation', ie, when a document is created from the template) in which language it should be, offering a combobox with choices, and then makes a document in that language. Is it possible without a lot of vbscript hacking? (I imagine I could write a macro that will search and replace all occurences of a certain placeholder text with the actual text in that language, but I'd like an easier way Especially wrt keeping the templates and texts up to date) cheers, roel |
