Exporting and modifying a language

Exporting and modifying a language

You can export a language file to modify the language or text.

Once the exported language file is modified, it can be imported to override a system language or to add a custom language.

To export and modify a language:
  1. Go to Reports > Advanced Settings > Language.
  2. Select the checkbox for a language to export.
  3. From the More dropdown, click Export.
  4. Extract the zip file and use a text editor to modify it.
  5. Change the text after the equal sign (=) to a different language or text.

    For example, rpt_name=[text to be changed]. Do not change text on the left-side of the equal sign.

  6. Save and zip the modified file.

    You can change the title of the language file, or you can leave the title unchanged. You will select the language name when importing the modified file.

    There should only be one language file in the zipped folder.

The language file is ready to be imported into FortiAnalyzer.
