PWN's contacts with foreign publishers, which became possible only after 1956, have borne fruit not only in the form of Polish editions of the world's scientific literature, but also of numerous foreign editions of books written by Polish scholars.
Until the 1990s joint editions by PWN and western publishers were very widespread. As a result of PWN's cooperation with the following publishing houses: Academic Press, Elsevier, Horwood, INRA, Kluwer, Macmillan, Nijhoff, North Holland, Oxford University Press, Pergamon Press, Plenum, Reidel, Springer and VCH, over 500 co-editions appeared on the market. The publications in the fields of mathematics, nature and engineering were the most popular, while the humanities were considerably less present on the market.
PWN signed over 600 contracts licensing foreign rights to publishers from all over the World. Among the most frequently translated were such authors as: Andrzej Paczkowski, Władysław Tatarkiewicz, Roman Ingarden, Witold Kula, Kazimierz Kuratowski and Hugo Steinhaus, to name only but a few. Some of the works that PWN licensed appeared in several foreign languages i.e. The History of Six Concepts by Władysław Tatarkiewicz. So far the book has been published in English, German, Chinese (in Taiwan), Hungarian, Italian, Korean, Romanian, Russian, Spanish, Ukrainian. This was made possibly also due to the Polish Book Institute's offering translation subsidies in The Translation Program http://www.bookinstitute.pl/en,ik,site,44,88.php whose aim is to support foreign editions of Polish literature and humanities. The program was created when Poland became the guest of honor during the Frankfurt Book Fair in 2000. So far over 200 books have received subsidies from the Institute, including several titles from PWN.
