25: Changing the Language for a Set of Text

If your document contains any language changes (for example, a sentence or passage in a different language than the document language), you must specify this. To do this, you’ll use the Object Properties dialog in the Tags Pane.

If it’s an inline language change, such as just one sentence within a paragraph, you’ll need to wrap it in a <Span> tag first, and then apply the language change to the Span tag.

  1. Open the Tags Pane.
