How to add interface languages into Photoshop?

Participant ,
Aug 16, 2023 Aug 16, 2023

Hello,
my native language is Czech which is also the language my Adobe applications like Photoshop, InDesign etc. use after installation for their interface (I use Windows 11 and latest Cloud versions of Adobe apps).

 

Sometimes I need to switch to English to share screenshots worldwide but I do not know how. If I open Preferences in Photoshop, there is an option "Interface Language", but the dropdown combo offers only "Czech" option.

 

How to add English here, to be able to switch between Czech/English easily, please? Thanks!

I may be wrong but the link does not describe how to add another language. It allows me to "set default language for further installations". I want to keep Czech by default, I only want to add option to switch e.g. Photoshop to English for a while and then back to Czech.

Right! That's what I'm trying to do for a Spanish student in mt class. I just want Photoshop in Spanish temporarily.

First do not uninstall your Czech version.

 

For Photoshop, you change the install language to Spanish temporarily in the Creative Cloud app and install Photoshop. That places the UI language pack in your UI menu.

 

After the install finishes, change back to Czech, and go to Preferences > Interface. Your UI menu should look like so. Select Spanish and restart Photoshop.

I know the only difference is the UI language pack, but for other Adobe apps like Indesign, I'm not sure. Consult their respective forums. You need not change the MacOS language if the photoshop UI in Spanish is what you want.
