If a document exists in more than one language and you wish to add different versions of the same document:
Open the work on the overview page.
Scroll down to the point(s) in time.
Create a new document at the same point in time. To do this click Manage points in time.
Click "import document."
Select the appropriate language.
Upload the .docx version of the document. (Use the PDF to check against as the authoritative source.)
Select the section display.
Click "go for it" to import the document.
On the works page change the language of the short title.
To do this at top right corner of page Click Settings, Properties, change the Short Title into the language of the work as it appears on the work.
For French documents do not capitalise words such as aux, pour, le, la, l’, à .
check how a word is capitalised in the content of the document for guidance.
Pay close attention to correct accents on letters for non-English works.
Click close. Click save draft.
Follow the instructions on how to deal with headings because these can be applied to titles. Style points that apply to all our projects can be found there
