Abstract
A recording medium contains operation descriptions for information reading apparatus, where such operating descriptions are recorded in multiple languages. When a CD-ROM, as the recording medium, is loaded into an information reading apparatus and the language for display is selected by the user, a CPU retrieves operating descriptions of the information reading apparatus expressed in the selected language for display from the CD-ROM and stores them into a main RAM. Thereafter, according to the operations made by the user, applicable sentences of the operating descriptions of the information reading apparatus, expressed in the selected language, are displayed on a display by the CPU.
