Overview

Characters constitute the information in all text that G2 displays, imports from files and other sources of data, and exports to files and other data destinations. Characters also constitute the information contained in each value declared with the G2 types symbol or text.

G2 character representation is provided by the Unicode Worldwide Character Standard, which supports the storage, exchange, processing, and display of text for most of the world's modern and classical written languages. Supported characters cover the principal languages of the Americas, Europe, Middle East, Africa, India, Asia, and Pacifica.

KBs supporting multiple languages, or those importing data into a KB from an external character set, or exporting data from a KB to an external source, need information about G2 character support.
