Is there a Polish edition of Family Historian?

John - This is a continuing sore point for those of us with interests in Poland, and other countries whose languages require diacritical marks, additional letters, etc. Sporadic posts demonstrate interest but not (I regret) in vast numbers. I wonder whether Calico Pie have properly taken into account the substantial population of persons in the UK and elsewhere (even more so in the USA) with Polish ancestry, not to mention the fact that much of the Ashkenazi Jewish community has Polish roots. There's untapped market potential there. To be fair, the problem affects the representation of place names somewhat more than that of personal names, but authenticity is important. At present it's rather like having to enter English place names without being able to use certain letters.

I can assure you that we are very aware of the importance of this issue (which as you say, affects many countries, not just Poland) and we are actively looking at ways of providing better support for non-English alphabets and accents etc. Simon Orde List Administrator & Family Historian designer
