We´re using a customized DAM for managing product pictures (with a custom type for pictures). Typically the original´s are tiff´s and are rendered into TIFF for Print, JPEG for Print, JPEG for Web and Thumbnail. The product picture type contains a repeating attribute language which contains the languages the picture could be used for (or empty if any language is allowed). This is for product catalog creation. Most of the pictures are usuable for any language, so the attribute is empty. However there are some pictures which are language dependend. Currently these pictures are having different filenames (with for example LANG_de, LANG_fr extension) and are imported indepently into the repository. There are no relations between the pictures except the common part of the filename.
We are looking for a better solution which could store the language variants of the picture as renditions to the original picture. Any ideas are welcome.
