CHARSET DECODING v1.04
WELCOME
"Charset Decoding" is a set of add-ins for Microsoft (r)
Office (Microsoft (r) Excel, Microsoft (r) Word, Microsoft
(r) PowerPoint).
If you speak several languages and you have Microsoft(r)
Office on your desktop this software was designed for you.
Microsoft (r) Office tools usually can display text in the
language in which it was written. However, some
texts of the documents can be unreadable. Particularly
those are from your international respondents, which have
localized versions of Microsoft (r) Windows and/or
Microsoft (r) Office.
When this happens, you can convert the document text to
the readable text with the "Charset Decoding".
With Charset Decoding you can convert any Internet
messages, DOS texts and others to readable documents also.
Now installation includes Native Language Support (NLS)
files of Macintosh character sets. They enable support of
MAC encoding for your Internet tools (not only for "Charset
Decoding")!

FEATURES
SYSTEM SUPPORT
For convert charset encoding with "Charset Decoding" you
must already have support for that language on your Windows
system. Another meaning, "Charset Decoding" supports all
types of charset encoding which were installed on your
computer. Basically Window s (especially Windows 95\98)
does not support of Macintosh character sets. For that
reason installation of "Charset Decoding" includes NLS files
(and setup procedures) witch enable support MAC encoding.

"Charset decoding", then "Custom". On the Custom conversion
dialog box, choose values on the "Charset" and "Font"
dropdown list boxes. You can preview the text in the
Preview area to check whether it makes sense in the encoding
standard and font you selected. Click "OK" to run "Charset
Decoding". Latest 3 cases of Charset will be stored on
"Tools \ Charset Decoding" menu.
You can switch "Maintain existing format" to ON to keep
document structure or switch it to OFF for faster results.
Also, you can increase the speed of charset decoding by:
- disable test for already converted characters (option
"Keep wide characters");
- disable display changes on the monitor (option "Update
screen", with Microsoft (r) Word and Microsoft (r)
Excel);
- disable store changes to undo (option "Can undo", only
with Microsoft (r) Excel).
All these options will be stored to repeat the latest
conversion.
