I have tried out Alfresco lately, and find it fascinating, it occurred to me I have done little to no work w/ LAMP (Basically I'm an MCTS using .NET for Web Dev).

As I am reading a book I got about Alfresco, I also am considering the Arabic Localization of Alfresco, has there been any progress on this?

Should I email someone? can I help out? and what should I learn to do so?

hope to hear from you all soon

about Arabic localization, I followed same procedures stated in Swedish package:
http://forge.alfresco.com/frs/download.php/450/Swedish-1-Alfresco3-Labs.zip
(refer to readme inside).

Utilizing Omega-T for translating all .properties files for Alfresco messages
(existing in '/messages' folder)
for details refer to: http://www.google.com.eg/url?sa=t&source=web&ct=res&cd=3&url=http%3A%2F%2Fforge.alfresco.com%2Fdocman%2Fview.php%2F156%2F2038%2FSwedish%2520Translation%2520Guide.pdf&ei=Fyx3SafAHaSLjAf90pHmBg&usg=AFQjCNGje0W9CYx3bnIWSVPb780nUDu09g&sig2=H5ec9BZUd5vkhvm7tJkDhw

Hi all,

you can refer to this tutorial for localizing Alfresco:
http://think-learning.blogspot.com/2009/01/alfresco-localization-tutorial.html

(b.t.w. I'm working on Arabizing Alfresco, but i've problem translating some expressions to Arabic properly.
So any help would be appreciated).

Hi,

Will it be possible to install and check the files (Arabic language support) you have?

I assume you tested these on Alfresco 3.2 version.

Please let us know about the status.

anita_ws — Tue, 12 Apr 2011 06:40:47 GMT

I have a document and I want to search a word in arabic using alfresco 3.2. Does alfresco 3.2 support it? If it doesn't, then which version of Alfresco that support it or is there any additional package that i must install?

Re: Arabic (ar_AR)

munwar — Tue, 12 Apr 2011 06:48:52 GMT

Yes. Arabic pack works great (it needs some minor tweaks though).

We could install and see the labels in Arabic.

I could search in Arabic as well (Title, Description etc)

Try installing the language pack and try out search.

NOTE: Though Arabic labels etc are supported, the support is not 100% (I mean it is not right to left). You still see the menu, editor, user interface etc as left to right.

misstina_sm — Thu, 21 Apr 2011 08:20:56 GMT

background-color: white;
direction: rtl;
}
then clear your IE temporery ,to solve CSS Problem you should change Part in this addres
D:\alfresco32r2\tomcat\webapps\alfresco\images\parts
let me know if you need any other help

Re: Arabic (ar_AR)

younis15 — Thu, 21 Apr 2011 09:00:13 GMT

Thanks for your efforts.

you know what the problem? Alfresco uses inline style heavily and this is not recommended at all, because to change these style (i.e. right alignment) I have to edit all the JSP files .

Thanks…

Hi all

Anyone considered RTL for Share (struggling with it now :x )
(Since Explorer does not offer the features that Share offers' for users)

Kindest regards
Hadi
P.S. Just finished translating explorer (webclient.properties) and share *.properties beta version if anyone is interested
(for community 3.3g).
