About Languages for Revit

For each of the supported languages, the Revit software contains translations for the user interface.

Revit does not use language packs. Instead, the base language for the software is determined as follows:

• When installing Revit on a single computer: The language (and locale) for the software is based on the computer's regional settings specified for the operating system.
• When creating a deployment: The language (and locale) for the deployment image is based on the regional settings specified for the operating system of the computer used to create the deployment.

Languages for Revit content

When you install the software, you also typically install Autodesk Revit Content Libraries. Select, download, and install the content packs for the languages you wish to use from the Content Download Page .

Languages for Revit help

For online help (when connected to the Internet), by default, users go to the Revit help site for the language selected for the Revit software. If you always want to access online help for a particular language, regardless of the language being used for Revit, edit the Revit.ini file to define the OnlineHelpLocale setting in the Documentation section.
