Yes, that is actually what I tried after giving up the idea of being able to tweak (ie configure) the ICUFoldingFilter to work as I wanted it to. With a custom modification to an existing mapping file, with all the swedish characters commented out, it worked just fine. The fact that it is a charFilter, and the problems that causes, is something I have already though about and considered to be OK. For now we won't add another field (for the non-folded text), but we might very well do that in the future. /Jimi
