# locale.strings

Part of [Locale](https://kernstra.com/docs/web-sdk/config/locale) in the Kernstra Web SDK 1.0.0 configuration reference.

- Type: `Partial<UIStrings>`
- Page: https://kernstra.com/docs/web-sdk/config/locale/strings

Overrides for this viewer, whatever the language. `strings` wins over `translations`. Some tools have a short label for the toolbar and a full one for tooltips: `tool.editText.short`, `tool.addText.short` and `tool.managePages.short`. Translate both.

```ts
new PDFViewer(container, doc, {
  locale: { strings: { 'common.download': 'Save a copy', 'tool.sign': 'Sign here' } },
});
```
