You can use the original language. Copy it and translate and copy into language package. It will be displayed automatically.

For new language in your joomla you need to make 3 new files tibetan.xml , tibetan.ignore.php, tibetan.php, go to
web/langualge/ download original english files and rewrite them, it is not so hard.. really, after that make that 3 files /the new one/ to one zip, after that go to administration of your joomla, and instal the new language.

I tried this with babelpad and I am stuck here. Is there any easier way to translate or different program? Any help or pointer would be greatly appreciated.

Babelpad is a good Windows utf8-aware text editor. One has to translate manually. Tibetan should be installed on your PC.
tibetan.php should be saved as utf8 no bom. tibetan.xml as iso-8559-1.
Please follow the advice above (for Joomla 1.0.x):

Infograf768, I realy appreciate your help. I've created 3 new files tibetan.xml , tibetan.ignore.php, tibetan.php with all the correct settings. My only frustration was using babelpad. I was wondering if there's some video tutorial or some pointer to begin with. It seems I am doing something wrong. When I select tibetan the whole script change to tibetan and vice versa. I was not able to keep the english codes as is and edit the translation. I apologise for this stupid question. I am completely new to this however I am trying my best. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks so much

Looks like your Tibetan fonts do not include ANSI glyphs.
Can't help much here.

friends, I also started a new joomla either. Turkish language pack installed. my problem is this. What should I do?

Folks, this is an old topic of Joomla 1.0 forum.
We do not support anymore joomla 1.0.

For Tibetan, you need to use Joomla 1.5 or 1.6 which is fully UTF8.
