Reply to: DITA: Troubleshooting Japanese and Simplified Chinese PDF output
January 1, 2013 at 1:41 amIn the “Adding an “xml:lang” attribute to your content” section, it says “5) In the Language field, type either ja-jp for Japanese, or zh-cn for Simplified Chinese.”
I would highly recommend replacing “ja-jp” with “ja_JP” and “zh-cn” with “zh_CN”. Although ja-jp and zh-cn appear to work fine when creating PDFs in XMetaL, if you try something like creating RTFs with Oxygen, using “ja-jp” and “zh-cn” won't work. You need “ja_JP” and “zh_CN”. I know this is an XMetaL forum, but you might as well make your files as compatible with as many tools as possible.
