Hi Karl, I am not sure if I understand the problem. If you don't want to use utf8 you may try to change the data in mkgmap\resources\chars\latin1

When preparing maps i use the setting --latin1 (same as --code-page=1252) This is good most of the time, since most language specific characters are replaced with plain latin characters. Cyrillic is transliterated to latin. In Ukraininan there is a softening letter (ь), when this is present in a name, it is transliteradet to ' (apostrophe). For example the city Львів becomes L'viv. This in turn makes searches more difficult since one not familar with the language may not know where the accentuation is placed. As a forigner i would not know if it is Lviv or L'viv. Is there some better code page to use to start with (still performing transliteration) or some way to ask mkgmap to remove the apostrophe from the text?
