Here You have. I've added languages for everything which is included in framework-res. It includes many dialogs, OK/CANCEL dialogs etc. What is most important it will add definitions for dates, times etc. This will not translate B&N specific programs (like 'library' and 'shop').
Added languages (you can choose):
ar
bg
ca
cs
da
de
el
es
ed
fi
fr
he
hi
hr
hu
id
it
ja
ko
land
lt
lv
nb
nl
pl
pt
ro
ru
sk
sl
sr
sv
th
tl
tr
uk
vi
zh
languages with better support by android:
Chinese, PRC (zh_CN)
Chinese, Taiwan (zh_TW)
Czech (cs_CZ)
Dutch, Netherlands (nl_NL)
Dutch, Belgium (nl_BE)
English, US (en_US)
French, France (fr_FR)
French, Belgium (fr_BE)
French, Canada (fr_CA)
French, Switzerland (fr_CH)
German, Germany (de_DE)
German, Austria (de_AT)
German, Switzerland (de_CH)
German, Liechtenstein (de_LI)
Italian, Italy (it_IT)
Italian, Switzerland (it_CH)
Japanese (ja_JP)
Korean (ko_KR)
Polish (pl_PL)
Russian (ru_RU)
Spanish (es_ES)
languages are taken from 2.2 sdk repository:
http://developer.android.com/sdk/android-2.2.html#locs
There are two files: one for manual install via ADB and one to flash via CWM recovery. I'm recommending second option as much more safe.

YOU STILL NEED 'MORE LOCALE 2' to change language in system.
Korean!!!
But, how do you do that? Are you adding fonts to /system/fonts folder or replace one of the stock fonts? If it is the latter case, I found out that replacing with some fonts soft-bricked NookTouch. If you need fonts, here's the link. It contains two sets of fonts. We don't have italic nor bolditalic.

Anyway thanks for doing this!

You probably just copied fonts without setting proper file permissions. Then You have boot loop because android cannot load fonts. You have to set proper file permissions before reboot.
You need to replace HelveticaNeue as those are fonts used in Nook (DroidSans in every other android device).
I can add Korean language to framework-res (main android file), but You have to workout font problem by yourself. Probably it will be better to use some font which has every UTF chars including Korean.
Hi
can you please add italian language?
that would be awesome!

I set the permission properly as I've used linux for a while. I switched fonts using noogie.img and linux. But some combinations simply work and some does not. For example, I have korean font A (similar to sans), I switch A with Trebuchet_regular, it work. but if I switch it with Amasis_regular, it does not. I don't know whether there are some compatibility issues regarding fonts.
Also, I can see korean fonts in the library(title, author's name) but not in the reader. Does it mean library uses different fonts? (since HelveticaNeue definately does not support korean).
I'm just trying to find out general rule for switching fonts. Since, you know, people have a lot of different preference, so people want to use different fonts. Again, thanks a lot.
I would just like it if we could figure out how to add a font to the list of available fonts in the drop-down box under the font options in the Text dialog. Then instead of replacing fonts, we could just add any of the fonts people are looking for. It must be possible, just not sure quite how to do it. Has anyone used "Font Changer (Root)" from the marketplace on the NST?

I used Font Changer (Root). It is quite working well in terms of replacing fonts. However, there's still a bug that if you choose to see preview before replacing fonts, it replaces wrong fonts. Still, replacing fonts is quite dangerous since it will put NookTouch in boot-loop.
One of the ways which is quite working well so far is replacing only regular font and deleting bold, italic, bolditalic. I am successfully reading Korean text through the stock reader.
Could you add russian as well, please?
MULTILANGUAGE BETA added.
Hi than33,
can you tell us where to push the framework-res.apk file with adb ?
Is it in /system/app or in /system/framework/ ?

/system/framework
I don't think it is safe to push it on system already running. Probably it will crash system immediatelly without any chance to change file permissions.'
I think You have to do this by CWM recovery. I've uploaded file to be flashed via CWM recovery. On the second hand if You have CWMR it is easy to flash original framework in case of something goes wrong.
UPDATE: uploaded MULTILANGUAGE file to flash via CWM RECOVERY
Spanish pleaseee
I flash it via CWM RECOVERY and it works good.
Many apps in french now.
Thank you
Thai Please

It was already added. My llist of available languages wasn't complete.
I cannot add more languages as those are all which are available in android sdk.
Please check once again if your language is on list. (updated 2012-01-03)

I did the same and Nook felt to bootloop. Will try ADB tomorrow after factory reset.
P.S. Sorry, it seems it's not your fault. The bootloop continues even after factory reset. Probably something went wrong with CWR...
P.P.S. Alas, the problem persists. Factory reset with 2 buttons doesn't help against the bootloop, but 8 interrupted reboots does. After the restore I tried to apply your framework, and got the same bootloop. I have a 1.0.1 version, is it critical?

It works for me but I have 1.1.0 version. Maybe it matter
I confirm, it works only with 1.1.0, previous versions won't boot up with this framework.
Actually I can't see any difference before and after update. Even power off message and buttons remain in English. Could somebody post any examples of the translation? Or how to check if the update was succsessful or not?
I'm terribly sorry that I didn't mention that this is for firmware 1.1. My mistake!
I've changed first post to be more clear.

Rename file extension from apk to zip, extract contents.
I have already done that , But it doesn't work
when I apply the font it , the letters are not correctly written
BTW : the font that I want to apply it is an Arabic font

What you're talking about now it's about applying the font;
The fonts don't display correctly because ICS/JB needs fonts to be coded in a certain way - i don't recall the specifics, but i do know i could find it through a Google search.

hi , i install Xperia Slim ROm and i really love it
but unfortunately it seems creator of this ROm Remove must language packs and change some fonts
cause i cant see Farsi or any Middle east Language in First Run or in Language
and my SMS in inbox in Unicode ( Persian ) is blank with some unknown characters
is there any change to find a patch for install Default Middle East Language and Fonts ?
if not , is there any chance to Copy it from Stock 2.3.4 ROM and move and replace with some Root Explorer ?
i try to copy font from system/fonts and paste to Slim rom Fonts folder , but it only solve my Reading
so i think there must be other important files must copied.
I rooted my note 8,and want to change the default font so where can i find fonts folder specifically??
Thanx
