Notes

Note 1. This product operates as a Windows only client. UNIX is not supported.

Note 2. The ISO 8859-15 (Latin 9) character set differs from the well-known ISO 8859-1 (Latin 1) character set in a few positions only. To align with the European Monetary Union (EMU) requirements, the euro sign and some national letters used e.g. in French and Finnish have been introduced and some rarely used special characters omitted.
Since many languages are official in both EMU and non-EMU countries, the default encoding is determined when setting the specific locale.
For example:

  • ISO 8859-1 is default for most English locales, whereas ISO 8859-15 is default for Ireland (en-ie).
  • ISO 8859-15 is default for French Belgian (fr-be) locale, whereas ISO 8859-1 is default for French Canada (fr-ca).
