To present a non-English language email interface to Domino users, the Domino environment is required, as well as the following:

• The appropriate non-English version of MicrosoftŸ WindowsŸ for the end user so that users can open file attachments that contain non-English (multiple-byte) characters in the file name. Providing the non-English version of Windows, also ensures that non-English fonts are present on the system. Users can then read email subject lines and body text that are comprised of non-English characters.
• The appropriate non-English mail template that enables folder names, button labels, field labels and column headers to display in the non-English language. This is not required for users running a POP or IMAP client.
• A non-English IBMŸ LotusŸ NotesŸ client to enable menu options and dialog boxes to display in the non-English language. This is not required for users running a POP, IMAP, or browser client.
• Non-English fonts for Lotus Notes to allow a user's workstation to display text encoded in the non-English character set in case the user does not have the non-English version of Windows.

1. From the Notes client, click File - Preferences - User Preferences.

2. On the Basics panel, in the Additional Options list, check the option, Enable Unicode display.

3. Click OK.

Install the non-English Notes client and the non-English fonts for Lotus Notes on each workstation. You can download both from the Passport Advantage site or the Business Partner Zone.

Note The non-English mail template is installed when you the install the Language Pack Installer. You can also obtain the non-English mail template from Passport Advantage site or the Business Partner Zone.

Prior to installing and setting up LPI in your Domino environment, review the following information:

• Review the LPI file, README.TXT, to be aware of limitations and restrictions.
• Extract the language pack on a workstation and then run the appropriate SETUP.EXE file. Running the file, SETUP.EXE, initiates a Java™ wizard on the workstation which pushes the language pack to the server.
• While installing Language Pack Installer, choose the templates to which you are adding the non-English design element. (Use IBMŸ LotusŸ DominoŸ Designer to view the language of each design element.) After installing the language pack, the selected templates have English and non-English design elements. If you manually replace a mail file's design using File - Application - Replace Design, you can specify English, or a non-English language for the mail file when prompted to do so in the dialog box.
• Before replacing the design of any mail files that contain custom folders, assign Manager access to the mail file to LocalDomainAdmins (or to a comparable group of which you are a member).
• After assigning Manager access to the appropriate group, manually run the agent, Update Folder Design, from the Actions menu in each mail file. When that is complete, run Fixup, Updall, and Compact -c on each mail file and then replace the mail file's design. Replacing the design before upgrading the folders causes the design replace to fail and results in errors stating 'unable to find referenced note.'
• Do not remove the flag, Prohibit design replace, from folder design elements. Deleting the flag causes the causes the folders to be deleted.
• If you modify the selected Multilingual options in the database properties' design tab, the database will open extremely slowly. Always leave the Multilingual database property unchecked. (Access the database properties design tab in the Domino Administrator client by clicking the Files tab, selecting a database, then choosing File - Application - Properties. Click the tab that has an icon of a hammer.)
• Add non-English languages to the IBMŸ LotusŸ DominoŸ Web Access template. Other templates are optional.
