Creating a new character set

If you want to add your own character set, you must first contact ReadSoft about how to do so. This is because internal adjustments may be necessary to accommodate your character set.

  1. Using Manager, select Settings > Character sets. The Character sets dialog appears.
  2. Click Save as. In the dialog that appears, type a name for the new character set.
  3. In the Specification group box, change the character set. (Each part of the character set, except Code page, corresponds to options in the Format group box in the General settings for the field profile.)
  4. All characters in the character set, including any characters you add, must be present in the code page that is selected in the Code page box. No checking is performed. You must be sure that the characters you add are present. (More information.)

  5. When you are finished, click OK. Changes are saved in Ehcharset.ini.

Use this procedure (after arranging the necessary changes with ReadSoft):
