Creating file in IFS with code page 420 - but I need square brackets

I am trying to create a PDF file in the IFS and I need it to contain square
brackets [ ] for PDF formatting

I also need to use code page 420 to retain Arabic characters

Code Page 420 does not include square brackets so those characters get
converted to some weird characters during the translation when using
CPYTOSTMF



Does anyone have any ideas how I can retain the Arabic characters in code
page 420 but also include the square bracket required for PDF files

(Creating a PDF file requires the [ ] characters in it's file structure)



Thanks



John
