Changing Languages

Text generated by Pathfinder Pro can be displayed in the language of your choice.

Generated text (i.e., category names for resources and text accompanying resources, such as "Find more information at") displays when a list of resource links are offered to the user.

The default language for text generated by Pathfinder Pro is English.

To display text in a language other than English, edit the categories and resource definitions.

NOTE

You must edit each category and resource definition to change its displayed text.
