Operating system and target language from the same language family
If the language of the operating system (e.g. German) belongs to the same
language family as the target language (e.g. Portuguese), then some difficulties
could possibly occur with the input
of certain characters. However, there will be no
problems displaying
these characters with a simple text editor.
Remedy:
• Use the Windows "Character Map"
(see Section 3.2: Entering characters with the character map) or
• Switch over the keyboard
(see Section 3.4: Using a different keyboard layout) or
• Use the ALT+digit combination to enter characters
(see Section 3.5: Numerical text input)
There should not be any further problems in this case. Use a simple text editor
(e.g. Notepad) and save the texts in the usual way.
Chapter 2 does not apply.
Operating system and target language from different language families
If the language of the operating system (e.g. German) does not belong to the same
language family as the target language (e.g. Hungarian), difficulties will occur with
both inputting
and displaying the characters in a simple text editor (Notepad).
