How to translate

Edit the .po files

If you do not see your language in the table above, email me and I will add it to the list.

Once your language is there, the steps are:

1. Download and install the free application poEdit.
2. Download the three .po files for your language from the table above (libdcpomatic, libdcpomatic-wx and dcpomatic).
3. Start poEdit and click ‘Edit a translation’.
4. Choose one of your .po files.
5. Go through all the translations that are coloured orange (meaning they ‘need work’).
6. For each translation, look at the source text and fill in the translation to your language. While you do this, copy the following strings unchanged into your translation:
   • %1, %2, % etc.
   • %.2f and similar.
   • \n
   These strings will be replaced by other text when DCP-o-matic is running.
7. Click ‘Save’ and send the updated .po files to me.
