Dealing with non-standard character sets


  • Subject: Dealing with non-standard character sets

Hello all,

I'm trying to display text generated by a device that uses it's own 8-bit ASCII character set. I bashed together a font that had the special characters in the correct places, but the Mac seems to ignore those characters in favor of whatever the current "encoding" is.

so, a couple of questions:

0. Have I expressed the problem correctly?
1. How do I define my own encoding?
2. Is there a way in NSText fields to force a special font or character set or encoding?
3. Can I embed a font and/or encoding directly in my application or does the user have to install them to use them?

Thanks!
