The only localisation I could find is described here: https://dotnetbrowser.support.teamdev.com/support/solutions/articles/9000110018-chromium-language-localization

DotNetBrowser allows configuring Chromium engine with specified language (two letter code from ISO-639 e.g. "en", "de", "it", etc). The language will be used for UI text messages localization (e.g. text on the web page that's displayed when Chromium failed to load URL).

By default, Chromium engine is configured to use .NET application language that can be received from theCultureInfo.CurrentUICulture.Name property. To configure Chromium engine with .NET application language, DotNetBrowser extracts the language from theCultureInfo.CurrentUICulture.Name property and passes it to Chromium engine via the --lang Chromium switcher.

If you need to change this default behavior, then you can configure Chromium engine directly with specified language via Chromium--lang switcher.

Unfortunately this does not seem to apply any date formatting (which makes sense as it only seems to pay attention to the language "en" and not the locale)

When I print, the header on every page has a date which is in US format. My customers are not in the US and giving them dates in US formats would be a disaster.

Is there any way to set the date format in DotNetBrowser / Chromium?

In Chrome Advanced Settings I can pick English New Zealand and English UK as languages and those settings do affect the printed page headers.

You could specify English UK locale as "en-GB" as shown below: 

BrowserPreferences.SetChromiumSwitches("--lang=en-GB");

Do not forget that this switcher should be set before you create any Browser instance.

This article describes how to set Chromium switchers: https://sites.google.com/a/teamdev.com/dotnetbrowser-support/documentation/chromium-switches
