# Language file

When creating a language file, ACRON searches the configuration and the reports for custom texts (e.g. names of process variables, text fields in reports, etc.) and writes them to the language file. When a language file is loaded, these texts are displayed in the left-hand column of a two-column table.

Note

The translations in the language file are displayed only in the ACRON modules.

If the default language file option is enabled for a language file, when user administration is disabled that file is used generally by all ACRON modules. When user administration is enabled this option has no effect. In that case only language files from the language file/user combination are considered.

### Default language file <a href="#standardsprachdatei" id="standardsprachdatei"></a>

This option is only relevant when user administration is disabled, and means that this file will be generally used by all ACRON modules.

### Time of last change

### Total number of entries

### Table

When a language file has been loaded, the original entries are displayed in the left-hand column of the table. The associated translation texts can be entered in the right-hand column.

Note

New entries resulting from updates are displayed in green font.

The entries can be sorted alphanumerically in ascending or descending order by clicking on the 'Original' or 'Translation' column as appropriate.

### Import

To ensure compliance with the syntax rules, the import file is ideally an edited (exported) language file in csv format.
