Re: How to convert special characters into unicode?
You mean like this? The following is two times the zodiac [ U+2648 ... U+2653 ] Mortbats Zodiac: 1234567890-= [ Needs Mortbats font to display, http://www.dingbatpages.com ] Unicode Zodiac: ♈♉♊♋♌♍♎♏♐♑♒♓ [ Needs e.g. Arial Unicode MS to display ] The upper of these two zodiacs will give wrong unicode numbers, the lower will give the right numbers. - Original Message - From: "SRIDHARAN Aravind" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Chris Jacobs" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thursday, February 06, 2003 4:57 AM Subject: RE: How to convert special characters into unicode? Yes, I have Czech language by default in my windows 2000.But the thing is that when I convert it into unicode, it goes corrupt - in the sense- the unicode value gets corrupt.I don't know why?I believe Notepad just fools around me.It just make me believe my eyes that the value is the desired special character.Thank you.Aravind

As Chris said, pasting them into Notepad is probably the trouble, because U+010C and U+010D are not part of Windows code page 1252. If you are running Windows 2000 or XP, Notepad can save as Unicode, but you must explicitly tell it to do so (the default is "ANSI"). Better to use a Unicode-capable editor such as WordPad, Word, or SC UniPad instead. (Windows code pages 1250 and 1257 do support the two Czech characters.) Since you already know the Unicode code points, it would have been easier by now to type the escape sequences (Universal Character Names) directly: \u010c \u010d Alternatively, if you use SC UniPad, there is an option to convert directly to UCN (as Adam mentioned), without having to bother with native2ascii. -Doug Ewell Fullerton, California

Use SC Unipad: http://www.unipad.org/ You can paste Unicode text into it or convert from any other encoding using the File / Import option. Then, you can use Edit / Select All and Edit / Convert / Unicode to UCN (\u), and you'll have what you need. Adam

How to convert special characters into unicode?
How to get unicode values for special characters in Java? I have a set of Czech special characters? For LATIN CAPITAL LETTER C WITH CARON, the unicode is 010c and 010d ( for both upper and lower cases). And I got this value from a PDF chart(u0100.odf) in www.unicode.org I have Czech special characters in an excel file. I copy them into Notepad. I save them. Now I use native2ascii convertor that is available with JDK. After I run this utility, I am getting some other unicode values or sometimes only whitespaces come out. I don't know why? Please let me know how I convert special characters into unicode. Thank you. Aravind.
