If in a post you do not see the quote marks and instead see some funny characters, is because you are not viewing through Unicode character set. Most of the world and the whole of Internet has changed over to Unicode in some form or other. Microsoft Windows XP and Windows 7 use 16 bit Unicode LE (Little Endian) internally. UTF-8 is the more prevalent standard, soon to be taken over by 32 bit Unicode, probably LE version. If you use English, you would not notice the difference till you come across a Unicode encoded document. To view characters in UTF-8 Internet Explorer 7: View/Encoding /Unicode UTF-8 Mozilla Firefox 3 and higher: View/Character Encoding /Unicode UTF-8 Older Browsers may require Mcirosofts Arial MS Unicode character set or Lucida Unicode, but this is becoming redundant. This is all a result of the American English speaking world discovering that there exist other nations and languages besides America and English. Wordpad is the most readily available writer to write in Unicode. I have not used Word 2007, but with a little effort you can use Word 2003 to write in Unicode. You can use Open Office 3 and up for writing in Unicode. Google has extensive facility to write in Arabic and Indic languages. By the way, Ecoustics does allow Unicode data entry. I use the Google facilities to create the data. |
