Well, I think this is only 90% right.  Yes, they use
compugraphics, but there are still some aspect wich are extremly
importend for foreign languages (hyphenation, kerning...).  These
are not supported by the US version.  Well, most american think
there are only differences with the Umlauts, that's why the
hyphenation of many handbooks made in the US are wrong (like
the german CEDPro manual) :-(

So, no way! You need a foreign version. I also prefer english
menus for a Non-US program (that's fine with CED :-)
