  • Subject: Printing French Language characters

I'm new to the list again, and would like to thank everyone that is active
in contributing information, when I first started programming for a
living(not for just for fun anymore), this list was useful in learning what
people were doing and their  Ideas.

help,  I have an RPG program that is using a externally described print
file, and I'm  Sending the print file a print line that contains Escape
Commands to control fonts, bolding, shading. This is working great,  my
problem is I'm trying to print French characters on an Invoice  and they
are not showing up on the print out.  When you look at the spooled file
they are visible and when the printer is set to print the file in Hex the
Characters are there.  The print file is created with  Replace Unprintable
characters =  *no, if  I change this to  Replace Unprintable characters =
*Yes, then the French characters print out but then my Escape command line
does not work and also prints out on the Invoice.        Thanks for your
help
