General

Even when the website for Apache OpenOffice looks like that everything is in a single place, the website is separated into a content part (mainly the text in HTML and MD or Markdown files) and an asset part (for graphics, CSS, JavaScript).

When it should be translated, then both parts have to be considered.

...

Header

From the top with the Apache OpenOffice logo down to the colored line with navigation links on the right.

Body

From the colored line down to the horizontal line.

Footer

From the horizontal line down to the Apache logo and disclaimer links and text.

Text is mostly managed dynamically

Parts of the header and the complete footer is not designed for translation, so it stays as it is.

...

The content on https://www.openoffice.org/xx/download/ is coming from https://www.openoffice.org/xx/download/msg_prop_l10n_xx.js.

Every To manage where a text is displayed, the key-value-pair method is used. That means every text has 2 parts: A variable and its actual value.by which the text can be named and a value which is the actual text.

Variable "l10n.dl_green_box_headline_text" and value "Download Apache OpenOffice". There are some control characters like sum (=) and the semicolon (;). Please ensure not to delete or change them. Otherwise, unforeseen problems can happen.

Extensions and Templates: From production to end-users

Apache OpenOffice offers a complete framework allowing it to be enriched. OpenOffice allows for both "extensions" and "templates". An extension is a third party tool that brings OpenOffice new functions. This can be done through addons, addins, deployed by UNO packages. Templates are document setups designed for specific uses.

The native-lang projects are welcomed helping translating all of these resources. The OpenOffice wiki can be used to provide translation of all the materials found here and now contains the majority of information.
