National characters in titles
[Post New]
How do I change font codepage in titles?

I am from Poland and I want to use polish-specific characters in titles but I cannot because all fonts are set up for just standard western (ie english) characters.

In most editors like Word, Photoshop, you can change so called "script" from standard "western" into "eastern" and then it is possible to use eastern specific characters. This is not the case in PD.. or I am missing something? _______________________________

Hi Tom -

I'm not sure how to do what you're asking, but here's an easy way to get your text into PD.



Cheers - Tony

Hi teedee,
You are right in your assessment and while I have been "playing" with PDR12 Titles I see the answer above describes the method I have to adopt when writing letters with a circumflex. Dŵr (water) will copy and paste from Word (and only after I have a tweak program to make typing easier) after I have applied the change but will not write in Titles the letter "ŵ". I'll pass on your concerns to CyberLink. Titles have had this set up for a long time and should be perhaps be more adaptable.

@Tony
You surprised me with such an easy workaround! but still, this is the level of free software dis-functionality, not what I expect from software like PD

@Dafydd
It surprises me a lot, that Cyberlink didn't implement such kind of functionality.. it should be obvious.. I don't even know what to say..?

Thank you both for answers.
