we have text in Spanish with acent marks

Spanish words like año niño does not print correctly in HTML or PDF

Try this in a DEFINE:

A_SPANISH/A1 WITH xxx=HEXBYT(225, 'A1'); -* 'a';
E_SPANISH/A1 WITH xxx=HEXBYT(233, 'A1'); -* 'e';
O_SPANISH/A1 WITH xxx=HEXBYT(243, 'A1'); -* 'o';
U_SPANISH/A1 WITH xxx=HEXBYT(250, 'A1'); -* 'u';

Not sure which characters you would need for the tilde... but I'm pretty sure it's in the extended character set.

Hope this helps

The NLS settings can be changed on the server and admin console. The default is 437 and can be changed to 137 which should cover these characters.
