At first, I made some of Japanese resources for PubMan on 2008-09-22. Later on 2008-12-25, I switched the codebase into the new R4 GUI.

Howto

pubman_presentation/src/main/webapp/WEB-INF/faces-config.xml

Add the following line in the <locale-config> element:

  <supported-locale>ja</supported-locale>

pubman_presentation/src/main/java/de/mpg/escidoc/pubman/util/InternationalizationHelper.java

Add information for a link to language-specific helps. (maybe no need to work right now...)

(R3) pubman_presentation/src/main/webapp/desktop/Login.jspf

Add a locale switch link for new language.

(R3)pubman_presentation/src/main/webapp/image

Current implementation needs the national flag for the language. (really?) Put the image file here, and link to it from the jspf.

I got an image of the PD Japanese flag from WM, and modified it for the desired size (currently 30x15).

(R4) pubman_presentation/src/main/webapp/header/ui/MetaMenu.jspf

Add a locale switch link for new language.

pubman_presentation/src/main/resources/{Message,Label,Tooltips}_ja.properties

Copy from each "*_en" into "*_ja" properties files, and then add Japanese translations for labels/messages.

Note that Java does not support native encodings of Japanese characters. You need to use unicode-escaping. "native2ascii" utility will work for that purpose, but PropertyEditor plugin for eclipse works fine.
