3. Copy java.xml from one of the downloads into the folder java.

4. In java.xml replace all <origin> values according to the following scheme, for example:

   Replace:

   With:

   <origin>${build_project_directory}/java/java-osx/*</origin>

5. Update the version number in arx.xml.

6. Build the installers using InstallBuilder.

      <string>ar</string>
      <string>cs</string>
      ...
      <string>zh_TW</string>
      <string>zh</string>
   </array>
