My firm recently merged with another firm. We now have multiple locations, including Mexico City. I have become BIM manager for the multiple offices. At AU this year, I attended a class given by two French Canadian (Canadien?) speakers. They mentioned some of the issues that come up when using more than one language, specifically shared parameters in English and French.

I will soon be training the Mexico City staff in the US. They speak fluent English and I don't expect any problem there. But, I think when they get home they should think, work and do Revit in their native language.

I'm on totally new ground here. I'm sure many AUGIes have dealt with this situation. Any suggestions?

In general regarding language support, the text file should use Unicode encoding to support multiple languages, e.g. Mandarin. However, I do not know whether the Revit parameter file supports Unicode encoding.
