Übersicht
ADempiere ist in mehrere Sprachen übersetzt worden. Man kann die verschiedenen Übersetzungen - genannt Language Pack - von sf.net herunterladen. Das Language Pack sind mehrere XML Dateien, welche die Übersetzung deiner Sprache enthalten. Solche Dateien sind Versions unabhängig, das heisst wenn du ein Language Pack einer alten version auf einer neuen version einspielst, sieht man nur die neuen Wörter in english, die restlichen sind übersetzt.
Normalerweise ist ein Language Pack eine gepackte Datei (.zip, .rar, etc.), welche ein Verzeichniss enthält wo alle XML Dateien sind. Das Verzeichniss ist benannt nach z.b. it_IT (für italienisch Generally the Language Pack is a compressed file (.zip, .rar, etc.) containing a folder and into the folder a lot of files with xml extension. The folder is called as it_IT (for Italian translation), sk_SK (for Slovak translation), etc.
The files have a format of: <table_name>_Trl_<language>.xml
by example: AD_Window_Trl_es_MX.xml, where AD_Window is the table name and es_MX is the language (Spanish for Mexican in this case).
After you have the Language Pack downloaded, you must install the new language. Here we describes the process to do it.
Note: In order to show you the process, we will choose the Spanish MX translation to install. You must change the selection to the language as you need.
Installing

...enable System Language and Start Language Maintenance.
Select Add Missing Translations in order to copy all the English words into the translation areas. Wait until finish the process.
Step 2: Installing the Language Pack.
As we said above, the Language Pack is a compressed file. Then, extract it to any directory (the default directory is ADEMPIERE_HOME/data), but you can choose anywhere.
Please be careful: the language should be the same as you will activate in the Step 1. So, es_ES is not the same as es_MX!
