The InTouch HMI creates a dictionary file for each language that you export. The InTouch HMI also creates separate dictionary files for each SmartSymbol in your application. After translation, you must import the dictionary files for each language to enable run-time language switching for those languages. All dictionary files for a given language should be placed in the same folder.
