%%%%%%%%% ABSTRACT %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
\begin{abstract}
This note describes the use of \AC\ to format multilingual documents in Latin or non-Latin alphabets. Font support encompasses the Arabic, Chinese, Greek, Hindi, Korean, Marathi, Russian, and Tamil languages, among others. For asian alphabets, \LLT\ and \FS\ are employed. The system fonts that must be installed for \FS\ are listed, and examples of simple abstracts are shown in twenty-five languages.
\end{abstract}
%%%%%%%%% BODY OF PAPER %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
\section{Introduction: why have this?}
The \AC\ class~\cite{lienhard2021} provides a template for formatting conference papers submitted to the American Society of Mechanical Engineers.
The goal of adding language support to \AC\ is to enable authors to include translations of a paper's abstract or brief quotations in languages other than English. Although the entire \AC\ template may, in principle, be switched to another language without modifying the class file, I have not explored this option in much detail. These language capabilities are experimental, and their future development will be guided by the feedback that I receive from authors.
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
\section{The babel package}
The typesetting of languages is handled by the \texttt{babel} package~\cite{bezos2025}, which is called by the \AC\ class. For many languages, \texttt{babel} includes language definition files (\texttt{.ldf}) that provide information about section or caption titles, hyphenation rules, and so on. When an \texttt{.ldf} exists, \texttt{babel} will recognize the language as a global option that can be passed as an option to \AC, assuming that an appropriate font is available. A list of the many languages with \texttt{.ldf} files is given in the \texttt{babel} documentation.
For languages in Latin scripts, it's usually safe to assume that the font is present, and many such languages have \texttt{.ldf} files. For other scripts, additional steps are needed. The \AC\ class handles this differently under \PLT\ and \LLT.
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
\section{Using Non-Latin Scripts}
When using \PLT, \AC will load appropriate fonts for Greek, Vietnamese, and certain cyrillic-script languages (see Table~\ref{tab:1}). The user can give the corresponding class option and then call for a change of language as described in Section~\ref{sec:6}. No additional work is required.
To access a broader range of fonts, \AC\ can be used under \LLT, with \FS. In that case, \AC\ will employ unicode fonts that are installed on the user's computer. The class option \texttt{[loadscripts]} must be called to load the non-Latin fonts listed in Tables~\ref{tab:1} and~\ref{tab:2}.
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

\end{tabular}
}
\end{table}
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
\section{Unicode fonts}
The \FS\ package~\cite{robertson2023} allows \LLT\ to access fonts that are on the user's system. Today, these fonts are normally in unicode, a 16-bit format that allows a font to contain a vast number of glyphs---up to $2^{16}$. Multiple languages can be contained within a single font. Specialized unicode fonts are dedicated to some languages that have many thousands of characters, such as Japanese or Chinese.
When processed in \PLT, \AC\ uses the \texttt{newtxtext} and \texttt{inconsolata} fonts, a collection of eight-bit fonts, for Latin script. To use \FS, those are replaced by corresponding unicode fonts. Specialized fonts are needed for some additional scripts. Only some of these fonts are included in a standard \LaTeX\ distribution. Thus, the user may need to install several unicode fonts onto their own system in order to use \AC\ with \FS.
Fortunately, such fonts are free and easily downloaded.
The needed fonts are listed in Table~\ref{tab:2}. The Latin fonts are required for English when using \FS; however, these are included in a standard \TeX\ Live installation.

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
\section{Using fontspec with asmeconf}
When running \LLT, \texttt{fontspec} is loaded by default (as of Feb.\ 2024). With \FS, \texttt{babel} will use \texttt{.ldf} files or separate initialization files (\texttt{.ini}) when they are available for a given language. These files provide language specific information, using include the appropriate names for abstract, figure, table, appendix, and so on. These languages can be accessed as described in Section~\ref{sec:6}.
The class option \texttt{loadscripts} must be called to load the non-Latin fonts listed in Tables~\ref{tab:1} and~\ref{tab:2}.
When captions and the like are not needed (as for short passages like the abstracts herein), \texttt{babel} can load many languages ``on the fly'', with only a basic call in the \text{.tex} file (see Section \ref{sec:6}), if an appropriate font is available, without even using a class option. Adding the language name to as an option to \verb|\documentclass| ensures that an \texttt{.ldf} or \texttt{.ini} file will also be loaded.
Arabic typesetting is a little more complicated. The script runs right to left, and so arabic requires the \texttt{bidi} package, which can be loaded as a class option. Similarly, when \texttt{[japanese]} is given as an option to the class, \AC\ calls the \texttt{luatexja-fontspec} package~\cite{lua-jp}, which is a specialized module for typesetting Japanese. (\textit{The Japanese option has a conflict with Chinese-traditional text as of March 2025, but both still typeset.})
What about support for scripts not shown in Table~\ref{tab:2}? Macros from \texttt{babel} for adding fonts can be placed into the preamble of your document. The \texttt{babel} package supports roughly 250 languages, and \AC\ has been tried with only about thirty. In fact, any of the scripts mentioned can be called from your preamble rather than using the \texttt{[loadscripts]} option.
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
\section{How to call a language\label{sec:6}}
Call a language with \verb|\begin{selectlanguage}{}|, where \texttt{} is the lower-case name of the language.
For example, suppose that a Spanish language abstract is desired. The user puts \texttt{[spanish]} as a class option (this language has an \texttt{.ldf} file), and then writes:
\begin{quotation}
\noindent\hbox{}\verb|\begin{selectlanguage}{spanish}|\\
\verb|\begin{abstract*}|\\
\verb|Este es el resumen del artículo|\ldots\\
\verb|\end{abstract*}|\\
\verb|\end{selectlanguage}|
\end{quotation}
As it happens, this short snippet does not even require the class option because the word for ``abstract'' is grabbed on the fly and the font is the same as for the main English text. On the other hand, a Greek abstract needs to have a font specified. The \AC\ class loads this font automatically under \LLT ; for \PLT, the font is loaded if the class option \texttt{[greek]} is used.
\textsc{\textbf{Nota Bene:}} \textbf{1)} Your \texttt{.tex} file \textit{must} be saved in \texttt{utf-8} encoding. Some operating systems default to a different encoding that will garble unicode characters. \textbf{2)} The features used to provide language support under \FS\ require an up-to-date \LaTeX\ distribution (2020 or~later). \textbf{3)} The documentation of \texttt{babel} provides detailed guidance on loading languages.

\section{Changing the language of the entire document}
The main language of the document is English by default. This means that section headings, captions, and other words chosen by macros will be in English.
To chose a different main language, give the option \texttt{[main=..]}, e.g., \texttt{[main=french]}. The standard caption and section names will follow \texttt{babel}'s dictionary for the language chosen. Users may additionally change ``Keywords'', ``Nomenclature'', ``Corresponding author'', and ``Joint first authors'' by renewing the commands \verb|\keywordname|, \verb|\nomname|, \verb|\CAwords|, and \verb|\JAwords|. Changes to the page footer are described in the \AC\ documentation~\cite{lienhard2021}.
% The pdf bookmark for ``Appendices'' may be changed by renewing \verb|\appendicesname|. % dropped this bookmark, Spring 2025.
(See the \texttt{babel} documentation \cite[Ch.~3]{bezos2025} if the dictionary for the main language lacks the correct word for, say, \verb|abstractname|).
I have not explored this usage in detail, and I would welcome comments from authors who attempt such conversions.
Note that some languages make characters active, which can have unexpected effects. For example, Spanish makes ``.'' an active character, which clashes with the default decimal separator when using \texttt{dcolumn}'s \texttt{d\{n.m\}}~\cite{dpc}. The command \texttt{\textbackslash spanishdeactivate\{.\}} stops this behavior. As of August 2024, \texttt{asmeconf} defines a \texttt{dcolumn} type \texttt{,\{n.m\}} that uses a comma (not a period) as the decimal separator.
%Alternatively, the decimal separator can be changed to a comma by putting \texttt{\textbackslash newcolumntype\{d\}[1]\{D\{,\}\{,\}\{\#1}\}\} in the preamble.
%%% CONCLUSIONS %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
\section{Conclusion}
\AC\ has multilingual capabilities under both \PLT\ and \LLT. In particular, with \FS, \AC\ can support a wide range of scripts and languages within a \LaTeX\ environment. These capabilities are largely experimental, and their future development will be guided by feedback that I receive from those using these features.
