Hi Dan

You are right, Rev does not print Unicode. See bug 1955 which is listed as unconfirmed and passed on to Michael. The following is a description of the problem. I have mentioned this several times but no response so far. I would love to be proven wrong...

Type Unicoded text into a fld and then use the various print options available to us.

<revprinttext >
put the htmltext of fld 1 into thetext
revshowprintdialog false,true
revprinttext thetext
=== This results in a blank page(s) being previewed as well as 'printed'

put the text of fld 1 into thetext
revshowprintdialog false,true
revprinttext thetext
=== This results in the unicode text being printed in ascii format ie. incorrectlly


<Print card...>
This can be used. One just needs to clone a stack with a field the size of the printable area of the
chosen paper, add a little to the topright and chop off a little of the bottomleft to get rid of the fld
outline and it passes as a printed page of text. It is not an ideal solution however.


<revprintfield>
This works for ascii text but not for unicode. The results is a blank page(s) similar to using revprinttext
using htmltext.

Hello...

Does Revolution not print unicode text?

I recently upgraded Rev to version 2.5.1 and spent 2 weeks updating my
application to support Unicode. I went to test the printout and nothing
printed!! Does anyone know if there is a way to print Unicode? Or, is this
a bug? If so, anyone know the status of printing Unicode?


Thanks in advance,
Dan
