Passolo 5.x Guide
1. Download necessary files. Setup folder paths.
- Download the Localization pack.
- I suggest that you create a new folder for each PASSOLO project, so, for example, let it be "C:\sftp_tr".
- Copy the "Smartftpenu.dll" and "sfftplibenu.dll" to the newly created folder.
2. Start PASSOLO.
- Select "Create new project" in the Startup Dialog, press OK.

- Wait while plugins are being loaded, you'll then see the "Project setup" dialog.
3. Project Setup Dialog
- In the "Project Setup Dialog" enter the project name into the "Name" field, say "Smartftp"
- Browse for project location - Use the Folder icon to the right of the "Location" field or enter the full path manually.
- Press "Add source" and add both dll files from the project directory. They will be auto-detected by PASSOLO filters as win32exe. When choosing files' language, select "English".
- Press "Add language". That'd stand for the target language. In this example, we will use Russian for reference.
- Press OK.

4. Create / Update String lists.
Ok, now we need to generate string lists to translate the resources. Select main menu -> String List -> Create / Update string list, Press ok in the appeared dialog.
- Please note that the "Translated" column will appear after string list generation. Currently it is 0%, when it becomes 100%, you're finished with the translation!

5. Translate!
Double-click the row with an untranslated resource file, and translate it! You've got 2 files, so you'll need to translate both of them :). Don't forget to periodically save the project with Ctrl+S or File->Save.
6. Manage target files
When you're finished with the translation, it's time for target file generation.
- First of all, define the target file name: right-click the row with translated resources in the "All strings" window, select "Properties", rename the target file replacing "ENU" in the source files with the 3-letter code for your language:

- Repeat the action for the second file.
7. Generate target files
- Select main menu -> String list -> Generate target file. In the dialog select "Operate on all
translation lists".
- Press OK.
- You are done!
