* G14: Vietnamese catalog — menus, file and shell chrome Add the Vietnamese (vi) TSV catalog header and translations for menus, File/Edit/Help chrome, clipboard and common shell labels. PhotoCraft and VectorCraft catalogs used only as translation memory when English source and context matched. ATTRIBUTION records the asset hash. Co-authored-by: Cursor <cursoragent@cursor.com> * G14: Vietnamese catalog — forms, signatures and pages Translate form/Fill & Sign/certificate wording and page organize/rotate/ extract/split labels. Keep product and format names unchanged. Co-authored-by: Cursor <cursoragent@cursor.com> * G14: Vietnamese catalog — comments, view, a11y and contexts Translate comments/markup, view/zoom/preferences tools, accessibility and preflight sentences, plus contextual rows (certificate, calendar, keys, scroll speed, signature pad, action wizard, @plural one-form). Co-authored-by: Cursor <cursoragent@cursor.com> * G14: Vietnamese catalog — remaining dialogs and notices Complete the Vietnamese catalog to every (context, English) key in the bundled union (2,580 entries). No unapproved English UI fallbacks remain outside the documented VI_KEEP_AS_IS list. Co-authored-by: Cursor <cursoragent@cursor.com> * G14: restore complete Vietnamese catalog key order Replace the domain-appended catalog with the verified 2,580-entry union in stable key order so coverage matches every bundled reference key. Co-authored-by: Cursor <cursoragent@cursor.com> * G14: register Vietnamese interface and date language Add `vi` / Tiếng Việt to LANGUAGES and DATE_LANGUAGES with plural_none and rtl false. Locale tags vi, vi-VN and vi_VN.UTF-8 resolve. Calendar uses Tháng Một / tháng Một; Fill & Sign refuses non-WinAnsi month names. Coverage tests require full command, literal, key and credits coverage. Co-authored-by: Cursor <cursoragent@cursor.com> * G14: document Vietnamese localization Record Vietnamese at 100% catalog coverage in localization-parity and ROADMAP, list Tiếng Việt in Preferences/docs, and note the G14 catalog in the progress log. Engine/OS details, document contents, filenames, CLI/MCP and external help remain out of scope by design. Co-authored-by: Cursor <cursoragent@cursor.com> * G14: use ASCII > in Vietnamese preference paths Inter lacks U+25B8 (▸). Match other Latin catalogs and write preference paths as "Tùy chọn > …" so the glyph coverage test stays green. Co-authored-by: Cursor <cursoragent@cursor.com> * G14: finalize Vietnamese terminology and current coverage Disambiguate theme Appearance (Giao diện) from object look (Diện mạo), normalize form Field to Trường, make redaction apply wording permanent, use numeric calendar months, close the GoToR/digital-ID key gap, and pin regression assertions. Refresh the vi.tsv attribution hash. Co-authored-by: Cursor <cursoragent@cursor.com> * G14: align localization docs with Vietnamese coverage Recompute the twelve-language mean (≈59% → ≈68%), document 23 interface languages, and remove stale claims that Vietnamese is missing. Co-authored-by: Cursor <cursoragent@cursor.com> * G14: cover Wayland title-bar strings in Vietnamese Translate Minimize/Maximize/Restore and the system title-bar preference added on upstream main, and refresh the catalog attribution hash and counts. Co-authored-by: Cursor <cursoragent@cursor.com> * G14: correct current union key count in localization docs Co-authored-by: Cursor <cursoragent@cursor.com> * G14: prepare Vietnamese localization for review Trim the vi.tsv header to maintainer-oriented notes, record native-speaker community review in attribution and localization docs, and refresh the weighted readiness arithmetic (localization ≈68% → ≈50%).

Localization parity
Last reviewed: 2026-10-10 · Last updated: 2026-10-13 · Change: minor (Vietnamese 100% of current key union; native-speaker community review; twelve-language mean ≈68%) · Target: Adobe Acrobat Pro (Acrobat DC, continuous track 26.002.21931, macOS)
Per-language status of PdfCraft's interface against Acrobat Pro's. How translations work and how to add a language: localization.md. Summary in ROADMAP.md.
How this was measured
- Strings translated is measured: the catalogs in
crates/ui-egui/src/i18n/<code>.tsv, counted as distinct(context, English)keys with a non-empty translation. The current denominator is the union of keys across all catalogs (2,590 plain keys as of 2026-10-13, plus language-specific context rows such as Vietnamesetheme/Appearance). The twelve-language percentage table below still quotes the historical 2,143-key snapshot from 2026-10-10 for every language except Vietnamese (re-measured against the current union). English is built in. - Not counted: error details from the engine and the operating system, which are shown in English inside a translated frame; there is no translated user documentation or help yet (Acrobat ships localized help).
- Script support comes from localization.md, the vendored winit IME patches
(
vendor/README.md) and user reports. - Native review: "community" means a native speaker contributed or corrected the catalog in a pull request or issue; "no" means no record of review. No catalog has had a formal review.
- Acrobat ships 24 interface localizations on macOS (
.lproj: cs, da, de, en, es, fi, fr, hu, it, ja, ko, nl, no, pl, pt, ru, sv, tr, uk, zh_CN, zh_TW, plus en_AE, en_IL, fr_MA) and Middle East / North Africa editions (MEA Arabic, MEH Hebrew, NAF French;Resources/Sequences/).
The twelve key languages
| Language | Code | UI strings translated | Dialogs / tooltips / help | Script support | Native review | Status | Acrobat ships it | To full (h) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| English | en |
built in (100%) | all; README and docs | Latin | yes | full | yes | 0 |
| Simplified Chinese | zh-hans |
2,088 (97.4%) | dialogs and tooltips through tl!; no help |
CJK text and IME work, but release builds have no Hans face: many characters show as boxes (#826, #688, #728, #758; Flatpak #689) | no | partial | yes | 6–12 |
| Spanish | es |
2,046 (95.5%) | dialogs and tooltips; no help | Latin | no | partial | yes | 2–4 |
| Hindi | hi |
0 | none | Devanagari not tested (egui shapes Telugu conjuncts, so shaping is likely workable); no Devanagari face in craft-fonts | no | none | no | 10–18 |
| Arabic | ar |
2,143 (100%) | dialogs and tooltips; no help | Letters joined and lines reordered at load, but layout not mirrored, wrapped lines break at the wrong end, typed text runs left to right (localization.md §Arabic) |
no | partial | yes (Middle East edition) | 25–45 |
| French | fr |
2,128 (99.3%) | dialogs and tooltips; no help | Latin | no | partial | yes | 1–2 |
| Portuguese (Brazil) | pt-br |
2,130 (99.4%) | dialogs and tooltips; no help | Latin | community (#288) | partial | yes | 1–2 |
| Indonesian | id |
0 | none | Latin | no | none | no | 3–5 |
| Japanese | ja |
2,123 (99.1%) | dialogs and tooltips; no help | BIZ UDPGothic from craft-fonts; IME patched on macOS, Windows, X11, Wayland; vertical text renders but can't be edited | no | partial | yes | 4–8 |
| German | de |
2,128 (99.3%) | dialogs and tooltips; no help | Latin | community, in progress (#828: terminology, clipping) | partial | yes | 2–4 |
| Korean | ko |
0 | none | Hangul IME patched (Microsoft and Apple Korean, vendor/README.md winit 3, 6, 9, 10); no Hangul UI face in craft-fonts |
no | none | yes | 6–10 |
| Vietnamese | vi |
2,591 (100% of current union + theme Appearance) | dialogs and tooltips; no help | Latin with stacked diacritics; bundled Inter covers them (fonts test) | community | partial | no | 2–4 |
Localization dimension ≈ 68%: the mean over the twelve, counting a catalog's percentage but only
60% for Chinese and Arabic until their script problems are fixed, and 0 for Hindi, Indonesian and
Korean (still missing). Vietnamese moved from 0% to 100% in that mean (59% → 68%). ≈ 55–110 h
to bring all twelve to full, of which ≈ 35–60 h is engineering (Hans face, RTL layout, bidi text)
and the rest catalogs and fixes; native-speaker review needs humans.
No language is full except English: every catalog leaves engine error details in English, and
none has translated help. Vietnamese's To full hours are therefore residual help/docs polish
(catalog and script work are already done), not missing UI strings.
Other shipped languages

14 other languages ship (22 catalogs plus English = 23 interface languages in Preferences). The entry counts without percentages were measured on 2026-10-12–13; they are not percentages of the older 2,143-key snapshot above. Their presence does not imply a detailed linguistic or runtime review. Acrobat languages PdfCraft lacks: Danish, Dutch, Finnish, Norwegian, Swedish, Hebrew. Vietnamese is shipped here but not by Acrobat.
