                Posted - 12/01/2003 : 4:59:09 PM  I can see the symbol for angstrom (Å) correctly in Word,IE,and other applications installed on my computer. So there is not anything wrong with the font files. However, I can not input it in Origin text labels. Or any other symbol with ASCII code larger than 132. why? When I input with either symbol map or copy & paste with the help of Characater map, it just beeps without anything added into the text labels. What's wrong with my Origin? |

                Posted - 12/02/2003 : 12:15:16 PM  The angstrom character (Å) is located in the extended  area of the ASCII table, and in the Japanese operating  system (as I assume), "half-width" Katakana characters  are arranged in that area for Japanese code page. 
  If you want to force Origin to use Western code page,  you can put @FC=0 in the script window  before entering the character. (Then you cannot use  half-width Katakana with a Western font). (This should  work at least in Origin 7.5, but I'm not sure whether  it does, or not in earlier version.)
  Hope this solves your problem.
