Hi all,

I have a report with multibyte characters. When I print the report to device "D" I get the correct display of all characters.

But when I print it to device ASCIIF I get question marks instead of the multibyte characters.

Can anyone help me solve this problem ?

Thanks in advance,
David

Not very surprising, if you consider, that ASCIF is supposed to create an ASCII file.

Did you try to pass an Argument to create maybe html instead, which should be capable of handling multibyte?

But this might also fail, if ascif first creates the file and then converts it to html.

Is there another parameter (like "ASCII") that could be passed to ttstpconv that will help with this kind of conversion where the input file has multibyte characters ?

html - is one parameter, but I am not sure that is what you want. Are you trying to get data into a file?
