In reviewing a recent CA application, the question came up of what is allowed in a certificate in data encoded as "TeletexString" (which is also sometimes called T61String).
Specifically, certlint will report an error if a TeletexString contains any characters not in the "Teletex Primary Set of Graphic Characters" unless the TeletexString contains an escape sequence. For example, including 'ä', or 'ö' will trigger this error unless preceded by an escape sequence. In order to figure out what can be used, one need to reference X.690 Table 3, which notes that G0 is assumed to start with character set 102. Character set 102 is defined at https://www.itscj.ipsj.or.jp/iso-ir/102.pdf. Note that 102 isn't the same as ASCII nor is it i the same as the first part of Unicode. I hope that this helps explain why these errors show in certlint.
