Adding an Attribute Subtype

You can add three different kinds of subtypes to attributes contained within an
entry: language, binary, and pronunciation.
Language Subtype
Sometimes a user's name can be more accurately represented in characters of a
language other than the default language. For example, Noriko's name is Japanese,
and she prefers that her name be represented by Japanese characters when
possible. You can select Japanese as a language subtype for the
so that other users can search for her Japanese name.
If you specify a language subtype for an attribute, the subtype is added to the
attribute name as follows:
attribute;lang-subtype
Where attribute is the attribute you are adding to the entry and subtype is the two
character abbreviation for the language. See Table D-2 on page 561 for a list of
supported language subtypes. For example:
givenname;lang-ja
You can assign only one language subtype per attribute instance in an entry. To
assign multiple language subtypes, add another attribute instance to the entry and
then assign the new language subtype. For example, the following is illegal:
cn;lang-ja;lang-en-GB:Smith
Instead, use:
cn: lang-ja: ja_value
cn: lang-en-GB: en-GB_value
Binary Subtype
Assigning the binary subtype to an attribute indicates that the attribute value is
binary. For example,
usercertificate;binary
