Internationalizing Printing

Loftware supports international fonts native to the various Printer Families that are able to support this,

as well as support for sending a bitmap of the font to the printer when the printer does not support

double-byte characters.While the latter method is slower, it does allow these fonts to be printed.Again,

this can be used on a per printer, per label, and even a per-field basis.This means that different Asian

(double-byte) fonts can be printed on the same label.A section describing in detail the per printer, per

label and per field concepts follows.

While no keyboard entry of Unicode or Double byte fonts is supported, you can connect Loftware to a

Unicode database field or pass the data through one of the following:

l .pas file

l .csv file

l .xml file

l Loftware's ActiveX Client Control

Definitions

The following are terms and definitions related to International Printing.

Term Definition

ANSI Code Pages

ANSI code page is a generic term used in Windows to describe a

collection of code pages used for character encoding in graphical

Win32 applications and fonts.

ASCII Characters

ASCII is a code for representing English characters as numbers, with

each letter assigned a number from 0 to 127. For example, the ASCII

code for uppercase M is 77. Most computers use ASCII codes to

represent text, which makes it possible to transfer data from one

computer to another.

Big Endian

Refers to which bytes are most significant in multi-byte data types. In

Big-Endian architectures, the leftmost bytes (those with a lower

address) are most significant.Swapping integer data between

computers of different types (see Little Endian) is a difficult problem

unless you convert the information into ASCII characters.Many

mainframe computers use a Big-Endian architecture.

CJK

A collective term referring to the common features of Chinese,

Japanese, and Korean writing systems.

Character Set

A character set is only a collection of characters. Characters from

different language systems are conventionally divided into different

“character sets.” For example, a font for use in Russia includes glyphs

representing the Cyrillic character set.
