Support for other languages requires rewriting the typesetting algorithm, which we are working hard to implement.
Traditional Chinese may be added soon, as it doesn't require algorithm adjustments.
Good news! After some hard work on my part, initial support for English has now been added. I will try my best not to break lines within words (described by the regular expression [0-9A-Za-z]+).
Although I'm still using Chinese fonts, I'll find a separate set of fonts when I have time later.
In addition, I haven't studied the regular expressions for words in other languages yet. Welcome the community to provide them!
Thank you for your reply. My fault for the misunderstanding. I meant support for translating files from/to other languages, such as spanish, japanese, by assigning parameter "--lan-in" or "--lan-out", which does not work for these languages by now.
Thanks again for your excellent work!
Or you can wait for the integration of pdf2zh's babeldoc. The translator on pdf2zh should have better support for multiple languages.
For proper word splitting, it is worth using the solution that Scribus has in many languages. I have been using Scribus for many years to publish texts
See file here (scribus/scribus/hyphenator.cpp): https://github.com/scribusproject/scribus/blob/8c471acebc96b62e7f446adf24323d457c094350/scribus/hyphenator.cpp
The source for Scribus is available from our Subversion repository at svn://scribus.net. “trunk” is the primary development branch. Note: there are other replicas of this repository (eg on github) however this is the official, supported code repository.
and also you can add support for "short words" which are not left at the end of the line, but moved to the next one. See: scribus/plugins/short-words https://github.com/scribusproject/scribus/tree/8c471acebc96b62e7f446adf24323d457c094350/scribus/plugins/short-words
