9.13.1 Converting from Unicode to Windows code pages

Mif2Go can convert your document from Unicode to the appropriate Windows code pages for HTML Help, by using the ICU library; see:

http://site.icu-project.org/

If you have not already done so, download icu401.zip from the Omni Systems Web site. To install the ICU code pages, extract all code-page DLLs from icu401.zip, and copy the DLLs to both of the following locations:

• %OMYSHOME%\common\bin

• your Windows system directory.

Mif2Go will use these code-page DLLs to prepare your HTML Help output, depending on the locale you specify; see §9.13.2 Specifying locale and language for HTML Help.

The complete set of Windows code pages potentially needed for CHMs can be found here:

For CJK languages, you would need these four:

932 (Japanese Shift-JIS)

936 (Simplified Chinese GBK)

949 (Korean)

950 (Traditional Chinese Big5)
