Message Enconding

When configuring the Email Message section of the email job, the Encoding selection is important as it must represent a character set that suits the language of the email message.  The encoding choices are:

  • Latin (ISO-8859-1) – Use this for sending email in any language that uses the Roman alphabet.
  • Chinese Simplified (GB2312) – This is the simplified Chinese character set.
  • Chinese Traditional (Big5) – This is the traditional Chinese character set.
  • Japanese (Shift-JIS) – This is a Japanese character set.
  • Korean (KSC 5601-1987) – This is a Korean character set.
  • UTF8 – This is a Unicode character set capable of representing virtually all characters in common use in any language.
