This instruction tells HotDocs to format numbers and dates in a particular language.

For example, the following script allows the model to use Spanish formats:

[language:esn]

[StartContractDate;da;format=3 Juno 1990]

Optionally, if your date or number format requires non-U.S. thousands and decimal separators, you can specify which separators you want to use in the language instruction. You do this using the grouping and decimal properties. For example:

[language:fra;grouping=".";decimal=","]

You must obtain the appropriate foreign language DLL file before the language instruction will work in your models. These DLLs must be saved to the HotDocs program folder. Contact your HotDocs sales representative for more information.
