Comments

• This APAR is associated with SPR# SRYI7WFF57.
  the driver the customer was using is not supported driver for
   Notes and it was also inserting non-Unicode characters. Once I
   changed the driver to Windows, everything worked smoothly.
   Recommended customer to use the standard driver which uses
   Unicode Font.
