Hello Hermann, thanks for your quick reply. I didn't do any setting up in Ubuntu, but I know Russian (and Hebrew) show correctly on screen. From what you tell me, though, I understand I can't read mixed texts like, for instance, a Russian-English dictionary, or a grammar book, where I have part of a line in one language and another in the other. Am I correct? Take care, Ollie
