# Globalization

The globalization process combines the translation of component messages with adapting them to specific locales.

## Internationalization

The internationalization process applies specific culture formats to a web application.

For more information, refer to:

* [Kendo UI for Vue documentation on internationalization](https://www.telerik.com/kendo-vue-ui-develop/components/intl/internationalization)
* [kendo-intl (the base Internationalization package on GitHub)](https://github.com/telerik/kendo-intl)

## Right-to-Left Support

The Excel Export functionality of the Kendo UI for Vue supports right-to-left direction by switching the direction of the Excel sheet.

To enable the RTL mode when using the `saveExcel` method in your Vue application, set to `true` the [`dir`](https://www.telerik.com/kendo-vue-ui-develop/components/excel-export/api/excelexportoptions#dir) property in the parameters object passed to the method.
