Hi, I'm trying to print Chinese to a printer using PHP's printer module (php_printer.dll). My platform is W2K, English. I've printed Chinese successfully from Notepad, so I know the printer can print Chinese.
I send the bytes to the printer using printer_draw_text(). The printer just intreprets the bytes as ascii characters, and prints out a string of those weird characters. I've used mb_convert_encoding() to convert the string to UTF-8 format before sending it to printer, but the result is just another string of weird ascii characters. So, where is the problem? How do I force the printer to interpret the bytes in another encoding? Or ... should I convert the bytes into another encoding, such as UTF-7, UTF-16, etc??????? Thanks in advance for any help, Nick ______________________________________________________________________ Post your free ad now! http://personals.yahoo.ca -- PHP Internationalization Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
