Viewing messages and message attachments in different languages

摘要

Architecture that facilitates language conversion and previewing of a message attachment in multiple different languages. The architecture can be employed in a messaging application or a personal information manager program, for example, such that the message attachment can be selected and designated for conversion into a different language, and then previewed in the different language. For example, a first language can be simplified Chinese and a second language can be traditional Chinese, such that the user can toggle the preview to view the attachment in the simplified or traditional Chinese languages. The attachment can be a word processing document, a spreadsheet document, a presentation document for the presentation of information, and/or a web feed document. Additionally, the attachment can be one of multiple attachments to the message that is selected by the user.
