The Elluminate Live! Translation Project
In early 2005, Elluminate started an open initiative with our user group, the Elluminati, to create translated versions of the Elluminate Live! interface. The currently available languages are the following:
  • Arabic for Elluminate Live! Versions 7 and 8.x
  • Chinese (Simplified) for Elluminate Live! Version 7
  • French for Elluminate Live! Versions 7 and 8.x
  • German for Elluminate Live! Versions 7, and 8.x
  • Japanese for Elluminate Live! Versions 7 and 8.x
  • Portuguese (Brazilian) for Elluminate Live! Version 7
  • Russian for Elluminate Live! Version 8.x
  • Spanish for Elluminate Live! Versions 7, and 8.x

Additional translation projects are underway and the website will be updated as they become available.

Please note that these language translations are produced on a volunteer basis and are tested and maintained by the submitting parties. Elluminate does not provide quality assurance and does not warrant the operation of these interface translations.


Instructions
  • If you are an ASP customer, click here for instructions on how to configure language support in your sessions using the SAS (Session Administration System).
  • If you are an Elluminate Live! Manager administrator, click on the links below to download and install language packs on your server:
    Note: you may install any number of packs, but be aware that each one will result in an additional initial download to your users, whether they use the language or not.

Using a Translated Interface of Elluminate Live!
Once a language pack has been added into an Elluminate Live! server installation, or an ASP session has been configured with the international version, access to the new translated interface is controlled by the region setting on your computer.

For example, to view the Spanish interface on Windows XP, you will need to change your language options to Spanish using the following steps:
  1. Open your Control Panel.
  2. Select Regional and Language Options in your Control Panel.
  3. Select Spanish from the drop-down list.
You are now ready to launch into the Elluminate Live! session. If your session has language translation enabled, menus and dialog boxes will be in Spanish.

Other operating systems will have similar ways to change language settings. See your operating system's user manual for more information on its language settings.
