Calendar Format

This option allows you to specify the type of calendar you would like to use with this GEDCOM file.

Note: Hebrew is the same as the Jewish calendar but using Hebrew characters. The values used for Jewish and Hebrew dates are calculated from the Gregorian or Julian dates. Since the Jewish calendar day starts at dusk, any event taking place from dusk till midnight will display as one day prior to the correct Jewish date. The display of Hebrew can be problematic in old browsers, which may display Hebrew backwards (left to right) or not at all.
