    -locale

    Specify the name of the Locale to be used in the program.

    Syntax

    -locale localename

    Description

    This command explicitly sets the locale used for language/currency/date/number formatting for the run. If not set, the locale set on the computer will be used. Also note that in Design you can explicitly override this default locale for specific Fields, Labels, or other objects. Locale names are a 2-character Language Code, followed by an underscore, followed by a 2-character Country Code. As an example, "fr_CA" indicates the French language in Canada. DocOrigin uses the IBM ICU tools to do all locale conversion. They use standard Language Codes specified in the ISO-639 standard. The Country Codes are from the ISO-3166 standard.
