Remarks
The language must be available on the network installation point.
You can have multiple elements for AddLanguage and RemoveLanguage element. If both the RemoveLanguage element and the AddLanguage element specify the same language, the AddLanguage element takes precedence and the language is installed.
Note:
If more than one AddLanguage element is specified, one (and only one) language must specify the ShellTransform element or Setup ends the installation.
There are three language concepts that you should know about when you install the Office 2013 Preview:
∙Setup user interface (UI): the language of the installation.
∙Shell UI: the language of shortcuts,
∙Office UI: the language of the Office user interface and menus.
When there are multiple Office languages, these three values are determined as follows:
By default, the Setup UI depends on the set of available resources for installation and the ability to match the user locale. By default, the Setup UI matches the user locale. The Shell UI depends on the set of languages that is being installed and, by default, follows the Setup UI. The default Office UI language depends on the user locale and current user settings. The default is to use the Windows user locale set on each user's computer. This means that in the default case, the Setup UI, Shell UI, and Office UI will all be the same.
A locale in the Windows operating system is a set of user preference information related to the user's language, environment, and cultural conventions. This information is represented as a list of values that are used to determine the correct input language, keyboard layout, sorting order, and the formats that are used for numbers, dates, currencies, and time. The user locale is a
If an administrator specifies multiple languages for installation in the Config.xml file, the Shell UI language must be selected from the set of languages that are being installed. To do this, administrators specify the ShellTransform attribute of the AddLanguage element in the Config.xml file. AddLanguage specifies the language that Setup uses for the Shell UI. However, this does not necessarily affect the choice of Setup UI or Office UI when it is installed on the user’s computer.
For example, if you have an Office image with English, French, German, and Spanish, to specify that Setup install full language support for all these languages and have the Shell UI follow the user’s default regional options, you add the following elements in the Config.xml file.
<AddLanguage Id="match" ShellTransform="yes"/> <AddLanguage
