This is the coordination page for the LXDE Translation Project. LXDE is an international project. It is our aim to give access to information to people with less powerful hardware. Many people did not have the opportunity to learn English or another second language. Let us make LXDE available in their language, so everyone can profit from the speed and easy to use features of LXDE! We also want to offer documentation and resources around LXDE in as many local languages as possible.

How to start

Wiki: A good way to start joining the LXDE Translation project is to start translating the LXDE Wiki. If you know how to make translations for LXDE components, just feel free to do it otherwise please see the links below for the how-tos.

Components: For translating LXDE components themselves, you can use Pootle at http://pootle.lxde.bsnet.se. You will find guides linked below.

Guideline: Translation Guidelines are intended to make it easier for translators to cooperate and to follow a standardized workflow. (Guidelines set up in progress)

How to translate

Here are how to´s for new translators of the LXDE project.

Note: Terms must be unified between components, having several meanings for the same thing depending on the file being edited is simply unacceptable for a good quality translation. A glossary would be a good pactice. Also, capitalization should be avoided whenever possible.

Upload After you have LXDE components or PCManFM translated, please upload it/them to the Pootle server:
