How is DAM Assets multi-language handled?

Our organization has 3 languages, en-gb, es-ar, fr-fr.

We typically use en-gb DAM asset's, populated with the metadescriptions, and display the "img alt tags" using sightly. How can we actually get a translated version of the DAM Asset?

Let's work with /content/dam/my-site/en/about.jpg

How can I get this DAM Asset to be multi-lingual.... all the metadata for this image is english. We need to translate it to spanish and french.

would I create 2 duplicated assets in the dam?

Hi @supportmember 

Yes, you need to maintain asset per locale and provide metadata in respective language for asset. If you are already using AEM integrator translator provider for AEM content, you can create translation project for asset metadata as well otherwise need to maintain asset metadata manually.

 

Please refer - Multilingual Assets | Adobe Experience Manager

Hope this helps
