LocalStrings.properties Files and Localization

Multi-byte Character Support

The Personalization Portal receives the encoding for the text of the site from the 
setting in the PAPZ logical device, which is in the repository. The default encoding 
is VTF-8, which can be used for both Western European and Asian languages. The 
portal sets the content for each page with the encoding specified by the logical 
device. To change the default encoding to multi-byte encoding click PAPZ under 
Logical Devices in the Service Designer and change the encoding for your particular 
language.

To set up a Netscape 4.6 web browser to display Multi-byte data:

Click Edit, Preference, Appearance, and Fonts. 

Select Unicode in the For the Encoding field.

For example, for Chinese, select MS Song in the Variable Width Font field.

For example, for Chinese, select MS Song in the Fixed Width Font field.

Select the "Use my default fonts, overriding document-specified fonts" radio 
button.

Localization has been simplified through the use of a property file called 
LocalStrings.properties

. This file contains text labels used by screens within 

various adapters and JSP pages. 

Modify the LocalStrings.properties file in the panama_pasm.zip file in the 
ORACLE_HOME\panama\tools\ServiceDesigner\lib directory. 

Modify the LocalStrings.properties file in the WE_
HOME/server/classes/oracle/panama/adapter/webui directory.
