A catalog usually is not translated before all modelling work is done, because only then it is assured that no further items will be add to the translation table of PARTproject. It has to be considered that the both fields Catalog created in the language and Catalog available in the languages (see PARTproject > Tab General) are set up correctly. In the best practice case the catalog was created in English (see previous point).

After finishing the translation, the column “english” must be copied to the column “default” (it can be decided whether existing entries should be overwritten or not). The default column is used as an important fallback in many of the CADENAS end media. If a catalog should be really not available in English, then another frequently spoken language should be chosen – but the column should never be empty.
