By default, AddSearch can work with any language. You can enhance the interpretation of languages by enabling language-specific stemming.
AddSearch uses two methods to determine the language of a page. If you have a multilingual website and are seeing different languages mixed together in your search results, please review that you’re using either of these methods to tell AddSearch the language of the page:
1. Set the language in the HTML tag
Include the lang
or xml:lang
attribute in the HTML
tag, as follows:
<html lang="es">
<html xml_lang="es">
2. Set the language using a meta tag
Include a dc.language
or content-language
meta tag in the HEAD section of your page, as follows:
<meta name="dc.language" content="es" />
<meta http-equiv="content-language" content="es" />
The examples above set the language to Spanish.
Language information in PDF files
Your PDF files need to have Language meta information in place. Go to Adobe’s instructions on how to set the Language.
