Translating Images

The PeopleSoft Pure Internet Architecture uses many images as part of its user interface component, and some of these images contain text. You will typically translate only images that contain textual elements or elements that are specific to one language or culture.

Translating an Image

To translate an image:

  1. Change the PeopleSoft Configuration Manager language preference to the target language.

  2. Open Application Designer.

  3. Open the image.

    Choose File, and then Open and select the image you want to open.

  4. Export the image to a file.

    From the File menu, select Export Image and then select a filename and image format to save the image to disk.

  5. Use a graphics editor to modify the saved image file and update the translation.

  6. From the Edit menu, select Update Image.

    A standard Open dialog box appears.

  7. Open the file with the translated image.

    The new graphic replaces the original graphic in the image.

  8. Save the image.

    The translated image is saved into the related language table under the language that you selected in the Configuration Manager in the first step.
