Language Specific Preferences for Text

Language preference determines what language is to be indexed, how the stem and fuy queries should be expanded and what words or themes should not be indexed. When Oracle Text Search option is installed, the preferences for AMERICAN language are created. If you are indexing non-AMERICAN language text, you must create language preferences for your language using the option Language-Specific preferences for text in EDM. These language preferences are available for your selection when you create the text index using Tools > Text Management > Text Index option.

This task explains how to work with the Language Specific Preferences:

  1. From the navigation pad, select Tools >Text Management > Language-Specific Preferences for Text option. The Language-Specific Preferences for Text page appears.

  2. Select the language from the list of supported languages to create or view.

  3. Click the Drop Preferences tab, to drop the preferences, and select the language
    for which the preferences to be dropped.

  4. Click Drop.

Make sure that you do not drop the preferences for languages for which you already have text indexes.
If you have upgraded from pre-9.1.9 CES Database to 9.1.9 you need to re-create the text index, after migrating the database. After migrating the database to Oracle10g, do the following:
  1. Select Tools>Text Management>Language-Specific Preferences for Text option to create language-specific preferences for your language.

  2. Select Tools>Text Management>Text Index option to drop and re-create the text index.
