The property UILanguage from the Application object returns the language currently used for the module. You can use the value to display a translated error message, for example, for a single field script validation method as shown in the example below.

If you add the needed languages as project languages to your project in the project settings you can define Script Resources for the needed strings used as error descriptions. The project active language follows the corresponding UI language and automatically returns the corresponding translation.

You can run any Kofax Transformation Toolkit 5.0 application either with an English or German or any other listed language. English and German are installed by default whereas any other language needs to be downloaded from the Kofax Web site and installed separately.
