Roee Posted November 14, 2005 at 02:11 AM Report Share Posted November 14, 2005 at 02:11 AM Somewhat urgent, so I'd appreciate any help on this: I'm looking for the Mandarin translation of the word "Anagraphic" or "Anagraphics" if you cannot find it than "Anagraphic" might do. Thanks in advance! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
