First of all many thanks to all who invested the time to read and
look thru all the things I supplied (and asked) and additionally also
took the time to investigate further. This was a big help.
I meanwhile got the error fixed which made the AS script go slow, but
I'm still struggling to set up a conversion from ISO 6937 to Unicode/
ASCII since I only got a few samples of how the text should look like
(the customer don't know either). I didn't find a rule yet, so it's
some kind of trial and error.
Again thanks for the tremendous input - any further ideas are
appreciate as well ;-)
Regards
Andreas

Hi Andreas,
According to PDF page 7 table "Character Code Table
(CCT) number" the bytes from 12 to 13 in the .txt file
define the Charset (or Codepage) of the file.
All charset are handled by Mac OS X using Apple Text
edit or using Unix command iconv_open(3) except the
6937/2 that you can bypass developing a simple routine
even using AppleScript.
AppleScript is not slow even processing huge quantity
of data.
Of course if you need to process 1 MB of text for
second is better to write the routine in Cocoa but for
"normal" use you can write the routine in AS.
