Dear All, Thanks to Koustubha Kale for his help on this, suggesting that I should install XML::SAX::Expat. As it happens, it was already installed. So, we reinstalledand in the set-up process, despite assurances that Thai libraries use Marc 21, we chose the uni marc and now the system _seems_ ok ... so far, so good. Changing to unimarc has, of course, created other problems, namely that importing data via z39.50 seems not to import all necessary fields including title and call number. It only imports isbn and library of congress numbers. If anyone has experience with this, please let me know. Thanks everyone for your help. David

Apologies if this is the wrong place to ask this. Trying to set up for Thai language. Successfully changed users' interface, but cannot enter a title in Thai. This looks like a font and/or config. problem, but we don't know where to start. Any suggestions or, better, experience with Thai in Koha would be welcomed.

Thank you,

David Bucknell
