How do I change the language in Creo 3.0?  I have looked at previous posts and they have all been for Creo 2.0.  I am using the School edition of 3.0

Hi,

1.)

During Creo Parametric installation you have to choose specific language, eg. german (english is installed by default).

2.)

By default Creo Parametric selects language corresponding to Windows user setting.

3.)

If you want to set specific language, then you have to go to ...\Parametric\bin directory and edit parametric.psf in Notepad.

Add following line at the end of the file, if you want to set german language:

ENV=PRO_LANG=german

1.) I did not have the option if selecting a specific language.  I have gone through the installation process multiple times and I have never had an option to do this.

2.) My windows setting originally was Spanish when I installed for the first time, however, I uninstalled and changed my language to English.  This didn't have any effect on the language.

3.) I am not able to save the parametric.psf file.  It says that I don't have access.

Hi,

1.)

To select language during installation, you have to click Customize button and then set options in Languages group.

2.)

I cannot comment your information.

3.)

You need administrator rights to save the files.

Try this trick:

  • save parametric.psf in your personal directory
  • copy parametric.psf from your personal directory into ...\Parametric\bin directory

Note: You can also launch Notepad using right-mouse-button command Run as Administrator and then edit parametric.psf file from ...\Parametric\bin directory
