Specifying Character Sets in Windows

In Microsoft Windows, you can use the CharacterSet entry either to determine the Microsoft Windows default character set or to specify a character set. The CharacterSet entry enables you to print any standard character set to a Windows printer (-PRINTER:WP) or to view an SPF file that displays the appropriate character set.

The syntax is:

CharacterSet=DEFAULT|AUTO|character_set

The arguments are:

• DEFAULT reflects current SQR functionality.

• AUTO automatically determines the default character set of the Microsoft Windows installation and uses the default set when generating reports.

  CharacterSet specifies one of these keywords: ANSI, ARABIC, BALTIC, CHINESEBIG5, EASTEUROPE, GB2312, GREEK, HANGUL, HEBREW, JOHAB, MAC, OEM, RUSSIAN, SHIFTJIS, SYMBOL, THAI, TURKISH, VIETNAMESE.
