To Customize Location and Share Multi Language Dictionary Files (AutoCAD Mechanical Toolset)

To save multi language dictionary (.mld) files to a network location and share those files with all members of your group, proceed as follows:

  1. Locate the folder where you installed AutoCAD Mechanical toolset.
  2. Open the acad.lsp file (acadm acad.lsp), and to this file add the following entry:

    (gencfgset "gen@paths@mldpath" <new_mldpath >)

    where new_mldpath is the location where you want to save the multi language dictionary (.mld) files. For example, s:/public/Stefan_Baum/My_very_personal_mldpath/.

  3. Copy all of your multi language dictionary files (.mld) to the newly created folder.
  4. Restart AutoCAD Mechanical toolset.
  5. Make sure that every member of your group who wants to share the multi language dictionary (.mld) files performs step 2.
