RDI format problem

[Former Member]

Hi Folks!

I have a small problem in RDI format printing. Does anybody know if RDI format recognises the displayable/non-displayable characters? I mean characters like $, EURO symbol, ~, etc.

When I am generating the output the special characters are disappearing.

Does anyone know why this is happening?

Hello!

Doesnt anybody know if RDI format recognises special characters?

Hi!

Are you using an unicode system. To print the Euro symbol in RDI you'll need to use RDI Unicode device type UCPLAIN or define your own PLAIN unicode device type.

Best regards,

Hello again,

I guess the question was not arranged properly. So here I go again..

I have a process order in which the long text is as follows:

"You pay XXXX $ & XXXX <156>"

The <156> is a non-displayable charater which is a EURO symbol.

When I print the process order, niether the EURO symbol nor the $ nor the & is seen in the spool.

The spool as seen in SP02 is as follows:

"You pay XXXX XXXX".

The characters are disappearing!

Does anyone know why this is happening? Does RDI format recognise special characters?
