JReport products implement a National Language Support (NLS) feature, which allows reports to be run in different languages.
In JReport Designer, you can use the two editors to edit NLS for reports: Data Mapping Editor and NLS Editor. With the Data Mapping Editor, you can create data mapping files for resources in a catalog, and the target language information of the resources will be stored in the data mapping files. Using the NLS Editor, you can translate the language-dependent text in the labels to any language you want and modify the format and font properties for objects used in a report or library component as well. Then when the report or dashboard that contains the library component runs, JReport Engine retrieves the language-dependent information according to the current locale in order to make the report result match the locale setting.
NLS can also be edited on JReport Server. For detailed information, see National Language Support in the JReport Server User's Guide.
Note: The NLS feature is not supported on chart components in web reports and library components at present.
The following topics detail how to edit NLS at report level:
