Yeah, I've been proposing this kind of thing for many years; the problem, until not long ago, was that the tooling was unable to process non-Latin1 characters in all the output formats that we use. But tooling has changed and the oldest platforms have disappeared, so maybe it works now; do you want to inject some Chinese, Cyrillic, Japanese names and give it a spin? At least HTML and PDF need to work correctly. -- Álvaro Herrera 48°01'N 7°57'E — https://www.EnterpriseDB.com/ "Pido que me den el Nobel por razones humanitarias" (Nicanor Parra)
