Re: [Pdfedit-support] Using languages other than English

[Gal R. <the...@gm...>]

Oops, I didn't found this bug report, only another one that looked like a
different issue to me... Thanks.

I'll wait for fixing, unfortunately I have no much experience with
programming. Sure not in "high level" (integration with system library,
languages/encoding issues, etc). Anyhow, it really looks like a nice
program. Well done!

Thanks,
Gal
