class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"custom\">Custom translations<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The following steps describe how you can create your own translation files for the Cartograph app. If you want you can also mail us your translations so that we can put them into the table above!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 1: Install Qt Linguist<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Translation files can be easily edited with the Qt <strong>Linguist application<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><a href=\"https:\/\/github.com\/lelegard\/qtlinguist-installers\/releases\/download\/v5.12.0\/QtLinguist-5.12.0.dmg\">Apple macOS download<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cartograph.eu\/v3\/downloads\/translations\/qtlinguistwin.zip\">Microsoft Windows download<\/a><\/li><li><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/github.com\/lelegard\/qtlinguist-installers\/releases\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/github.com\/lelegard\/qtlinguist-installers\/releases\" target=\"_blank\">Website<\/a><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 2: Download a base translation file<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Download one of the translation <strong>source files <\/strong>from the <a href=\"#download\">table<\/a> above. It is recommended that you directly download the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cartograph.eu\/v3\/downloads\/translations\/cartograph3.en_US.ts.zip\">English version<\/a> because this version is always up-to-date. <strong>Extract <\/strong>the &#8220;*.ts&#8221; file contained in the downloaded zip file to some location on your computer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 3: Rename the downloaded *.ts file<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Now <strong>rename <\/strong>the extracted *.ts file <strong>matching your language<\/strong>. For &#8220;German&#8221; the recommended format is for instance &#8220;cartograph3.de.ts&#8221;, for French &#8220;cartograph3.fr.ts&#8221;, and so on. As an alternative you can also give the translation file custom names, for instance &#8220;cartograph3.mytranslation.de.ts&#8221;.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 4: Open the translation file in Qt Linguist<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Start the Qt Linguist application and open the extracted and renamed *.ts file. Then go to &#8220;<strong>Edit<\/strong>&#8221; &#8211; &#8220;<strong>Translation file settings<\/strong>&#8221; and select your translation&#8217;s country and language settings:<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cartograph.eu\/v3\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/image.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-173\" width=\"418\" height=\"293\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.cartograph.eu\/v3\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/image.png 836w, https:\/\/www.cartograph.eu\/v3\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/image-300x210.png 300w, https:\/\/www.cartograph.eu\/v3\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/image-768x538.png 768w, https:\/\/www.cartograph.eu\/v3\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/image-130x90.png 130w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 418px) 100vw, 418px\" \/><figcaption>Language settings in Qt Linguist.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 5: Translate the file<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Now you can translate the file. Do not forget to save the translation from time-to-time by pressing the &#8220;CTRL+S&#8221; keys.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 6: Create a *.qm file<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Select &#8220;<strong>File<\/strong>&#8221; &#8211; &#8220;<strong>Release<\/strong>&#8221; in Qt Linguist. This will create a *.qm file, for instance &#8220;cartograph.de.qm&#8221;. If you want to share the translation with other users then you can <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cartograph.eu\/v3\/contact\/\" data-type=\"page\" data-id=\"14\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">email us <\/a>your *.qm and *.ts files.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 7: Install the *.qm file in the Cartograph app<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Copy <\/strong>the *.qm file to the &#8220;<strong>Translation<\/strong>&#8221; directory in the Cartograph app:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>iOS<\/strong>: Use the <strong>iOS Files app <\/strong>for copying the file.<\/li><li><strong>Android<\/strong>: Use the File manager included in the Cartograph app for picking the file.<\/li><li><strong>macOS<\/strong>: Use the File manager included in the Cartograph app for picking the file.<\/li><li><strong>Windows<\/strong>: The Cartograph translations directory is located in the Windows &#8220;Documents&#8221; folder.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 8: Select your new language<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Go to the Cartograph &#8220;<strong>Settings<\/strong>&#8221; &#8211; &#8220;<strong>Language<\/strong>&#8221; and select your new language. It is recommended to restart the app for loading all translations:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>macOS\/Windows: Close and open the Cartograph app again.<\/li><li>Android\/iOS: First bring the Cartograph app to the background. Then use the Android\/iOS task manager for killing the app.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-css-opacity\"\/>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Cartograph app can be extended with custom languages and translations: Download existing translations.
