### 9.12.2 Specifying locale and language for HTML Help

To specify locale and language for HTML Help (for example, Japanese):

[MSHtmlHelpOptions]

; HelpFileLanguage = LCID to put in project file, default is for

: US English.

HelpFileLanguage = 0x411 Japanese

This is equivalent to setting the following in your .hhp file:

[OPTIONS]

Language = 0x411 Japanese

Mif2Go supports the following locales:

Decimal | Hex | Language
1033 | 0x409 | English (United States)
1032 | 0x408 | Greek
1049 | 0x419 | Russian
1055 | 0x41F | Turkish
1029 | 0x405 | Czech (used for Central European)
1041 | 0x411 | Japanese
1028 | 0x404 | Chinese (Traditional)
2052 | 0x804 | Chinese (Simplified)
1042 | 0x412 | Korean

Each of these values sets an associated code page for all output files, and overrides any values specified in the configuration file for the following settings in [HTMLOptions]:

Encoding | §13.4.3 Specifying character encoding for HTML
XMLEncoding | §14.3.3 Specifying character encoding for generic XML

Getting around a defect in HHW in order to display Help title

When you specify a locale identifier (LCID) other than US English, a defect in HTML Help Workshop prevents your Help-file title from being displayed in the CHM file; instead, the title shows as “HTML Help”. Mif2Go provides a default workaround that sets the HTML Help Workshop Language option to US English for initial creation of the .hhp file. Even if the resulting CHM file will be used in other locales, a setting for HelpFileLanguage is required to display the value you specified for HelpFileTitle instead of just “HTML Help”.

Fixed spaces cannot always be represented

Because fixed spaces (such as non-breaking spaces and thin spaces) cannot be represented in some code pages, if you are using (for example) the Japanese locale, Mif2Go maps all fixed spaces to the ideographic space, U+3000 (x81 x40), for code page 932. For other characters, see §21.5 Mapping special characters.
