ME10 & windows font

[GiorgioL]

I use Me10 11.65 (but the same on 11.00) with WINNT40SP6 and I need to use east european caracters!!!.
ME10 manages the font as in the old WIN3.1 OS application. If you want use special caracter you need install a new font.
Well, I found a new TTF font with the east european character and I can see in WORD but when I try in ME10 the caracter often is not the same.
Is there a tips to avoid this?

Thanks in advance. Giorgio L.

Hi,

this happens because ME10 (OSDD) is using a different character codepage than standard Windows. ( Because of historical reasons UNIX character set is used inside ME10 Windows )

You have to write an on-the-fly codepage converter MSWORD - OSDD if you want to copy&paste language specific special characters from the second half of the ASCII table into ME10 (OSDD)
