English-language locale reference

Polish Typography Rules

The PL profile covers Polish quotation forms, one-letter words, dates, numbers, currency, unit spacing, and selected titles.

PL
Publication locale, not translation

This page is written in English. The locale codes describe the text being typeset and the convention Avellio applies; they do not indicate the language of this web page.

At a glance

Quotation marks

Primary „…” and nested ‚…’ are the Avellio profile model.

Punctuation spacing

Punctuation findings remain contextual around abbreviations, numeric strings, and quotations.

Non-breaking spaces

Selected one-letter words w, z, i, o, u, a should remain with the following word; exact cases are Review Queue candidates.

Dates

Dot and ISO date patterns are recognized.

Numbers

Space grouping and decimal comma are expected by the profile.

Currency

zł or PLN appears as a spaced suffix.

Units

Recognized number–unit pairs require protected spacing.

Regional variants

The PL profile is separate from Czech despite similar no-break concerns.

PL

House-style caveat

The targeted dictionary is not a general Polish spelling or grammar service.

How to use this with Avellio

  1. Assign accurate InDesign paragraph languages before relying on AUTO.
  2. Use an explicit profile when one regional convention governs the complete scope.
  3. Run a new Typography Audit after changing locale.
  4. Read locale source, specificity, confidence, and context together.
  5. Correct ambiguous dates, numbers, currencies, and complete quote pairs manually.
