Hi

There is a requirement to translate content of tiff file standard text created in SO10 ,

from English to Spanish language inside SAP script based on output type.

I have created a standard text object in SO10 .

syntax used for calling standard text inside sap script

INCLUDE ZHEX-MACRO-TERMS OBJECT TEXT ID ST LANGUAGE E

Is it possible to translate the standard text English to spanish while displaying the script ?

Please let me know for further clarification .

Any input is appreciated.

Regards,

Prabin

You have to create the text in every required language and use a language variable (or no language to select the language of the calling text.)

Of course you may also call some available web-service to translate the text on-the-fly.

Hi Raymond,

If no language is mentioned while calling the standard text then is it possible to translate the content ?

INCLUDE ZHEX-MACRO-TERMS OBJECT TEXT ID ST

Or

We have to create the text in required language (Spanish in my case) to display in Spanish ?

Thanks.

SAPscript won't translate the text (it's not a translator tool) it can only identify the language to use and check existence and read the text in the required language. So the text must be create in every required language.

How is a TIFF (image) file related to a true standard text? (I know that TIFF can be stored in a standard text via SE78, but then it's not a true text and even the INCLUDE should be OBJECT GRAPHICS ...)
