After I add one printer in zh_CN enviroments, I can see the localized strings in printer options via Web page (http://localhost:631).  But if I use OpenOffice or other applications, they all still shows  english strings in Printer Dialog.  So my question is the localization PPD files only can take effects on WEB? If it is right, would you please give me some comments about how to make application can show localized strings in "Driver Options"?

OpenOffice apparently doesn't use the ppdLocalize API to get the
localized version of the option strings.  File a bug with the open
office folks...
