>The problem is that larger buttons add useles space to all other languages.

I understand. Try for a "one size fits all" is really a hardwork.

We can think this is the different: Western (ENU/DEU...) often use a font size "8" for a standard, but CHS/CHT/KOR/JPN 4 languages use font size "9". Western use "MS Sans Serif" as a dialog standard font, but CHS/CHT/KOR/JPN standard font is highly quitely different.

>I haven't got these Chinese fonts

If using Win2k ENU version, try "Control panel/Regional Setting/System language setting", and check the checkbox of Chinese/Korean/Japanese ^_^ You can display Chinese or Korean in win2k, even with win2k English version.

>(try to make 'em a bit smaller).

I am also afraid button-text truncated in button .

>exactly the right sizes

Make sure again.

Sorry, noted again.

Standard font for CHS is "SimSun" , which is a fixed-width font. That means if there button contains english charactor, would occupied fixed-width size. But for CHT/KOR/JPN is proportional font (yes, not fixed-width). Theoratically CHS is the languate which most easily truncated the button

I also tested in CHS, the size will have NO truncated button. ^_^

In this stage. I only found button need resize.

Suggest: You may ask Korean guys, if they encoutner any truncated text with NSIS installer. Reason why has been already written in prior post.

Please give me some more details about the button sizes. Make suke that you give me the smallest size possible!

Are you sure that the text does not fit in the Back, Next and Cancel button? A width of 50 is the default Windows size, it looks ugly when you resize it.

Attached a screen capture. in "Next" "Back" button it is only "just fit", but too much crowded. Just to add a bit little width is good.

Screen under VC and Simplified Chinese Win2k, Use a "fixed-width" font size 9 to dispaly. (such as "Simsun" font). Sample filename: modern2.exe. Dialog 105,

50 is the default Windows size for Back, Next and Cancel, so I really cannot change that.

Please give me the exact sizes for the other buttons (do not add to much space) 🙂

Please update Italian.nlf too. I added some accelerator keys, but I'm not sure wheather they are the default ones.

Your translation for Back, Next etc. is also different. I used your translation now, please make sure that it is the correct one. 🙂

Thanks.

Language name in Polish language file:
In Polish.nsh, the name of the language in the language itself is Polysk. But from what I know it should instead be Polski.
Also, I'm using Polski in my apps and my polish translator did not complain yet 😉

Another proof: Google, only 365 results for Polysk, but 2,360,000 results for polski 😱

German.nlf Revision 1.14: better translation

Who did the revision and why? Please add all translators to the file or only the last one.
It's worse imho but shorter, didn't the previous translation fit as it was?

I did not fit.

it did fit when I translated it iirc (at least in non-xp mode) - can you post a screenshot?
please change the InstType text to 'bestimmen' instead of 'wählen'
I had to use 'wählen' and 'auswählen' way too often in the translation, using it again is bad style
I can use 'bestimmen' only in this case, because it's a OR choice whereas the other choices are AND/OR ones

The Greek nsh language file now includes translations for the start menu page. 🙂

BTW, the label where the "MUI_INNERTEXT_STARTMENU" text goes needs to be just a few pixels larger, so that the third line fits completely (the bottom part for letters like g,q,p etc. that extend below the line is not displayed).

It would also be nice to have the language files in the Windows CR/LF format, like the nlf files - it would make the updates a bit easier.

Use TortoiseCVS, it gets text files in windows format.

And now the file:

I hardly have any time to find out how the cvs stuff work 😉 I just download the latest snapshot - thanks for the tip though I'll check it out when I get some time.
