InstallShield 11 Universal

Available in InstallShield Universal Premier Only

InstallShield Universal provides full support for internationalization in over 27 languages for both the product to be installed and the languages in which the wizard is available to run.

The locales in which your product is available to be installed are set in the Installation Design view by setting the Advanced/Locale property of the root product, features, and/or components.

The languages in which the wizard is available to run are set in the Releases view, Language Support. The default language is English. This means that if no language(s) is selected in this view, then the installation/uninstallation will run in English.

Note

Translations are provided of all of the strings included with Universal. These strings can be viewed and edited in the String Table view.
