Localized pdf (and other) documents/files


  • Subject: Localized pdf (and other) documents/files

Hello,

Way back in 2002, there was a short discussion about the idea of providing localized readme files as part of an improved software delivery experience (http://lists.apple.com/archives/cocoa-dev/2002/Mar/msg00301.html ).

Later Apple has used the same idea to provide pdf files as bundles with localized content, in e.g. /Library/Documentation/Applications/ GarageBand/ where there is what looks like a pdf file, but formally is an application that returns the proper pdf file according to the user's language preferences.

Now I wanted to replicate this behaviour in my own set of pdf readme files, but I'm unable to. The documentation mentioned above contains some actual executables, which I don't understand the function of. I have searched all possible documentation at dev.apple.com as well as mailing lists and Google, and found nothing.

Still, this should not be too hard? I mean, folder names can easily be localised (that method is documented), and there are some working examples in Leopard. It is just that I can't figure out how... :|

Any help or pointers would be appreciated.

Best regards,
Sjur
