Create foreign-language versions of text templates

Create foreign-language versions of customer printouts directly in the text template.

  1. Go to the Vorlagen Templates tab in the function bar and select Briefvorlagen Text templates > suche Search .

As of version 12.1:

  1. Click on neu Add language to open an additional tab for the foreign language template. All languages that have been created under Administration Administration > Sprache Languages and activated for Briefe Mail/Email will be available here.
  2. Enter the foreign-language text template and edit it if necessary using the woerterbuch Dictionary. If no text is entered, the tab for this language is automatically removed again when closing.
  3. Select a corresponding Briefvorlagen Text template to assign a suitable Cover letter to the letter template. If a letter is created on the basis of the multilingual template, the cover letter is automatically given out in the same language.
  4. Click on Funktion Subject based on formula to customise the subject of a multilingual mail, and enter a suitable ausgabe Formula (using the "Dictionary Translate" and "Current Language" functions).

  2. Select the target language in the Language field of the template.
  3. Re-open the template by clicking on File > Open in the toolbar of the Briefe Text tab.
    Note: If you copy the original text from one language to another using Ctrl+A, Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V, the texts and database references are retained, but not the page layout.
