Language Properties In Word Files - Siemens SINUMERIK 840D sl Commissioning Manual

08/2005
From these tables, combine the headers for the column and row (hexadecimal 00
to FF) and convert this number to form a decimal number (0 to 255).
The 4-digit hexadecimal numbers contained in the individual table fields are the
corresponding Unicode codes which can be used for identification of a character,
but they cannot be used for numerical input of that character.
Section 3.2 (Input via the Character Map) also describes where the key
combination is displayed in the Character Map.

3.6 Language properties in Word files

Language property
In Word, a property (attribute) is managed separately for each character similarly to
other text properties (bold, underscore).
In the language properties, Word will remember the language to which the
character, the character sequence, the word or the whole sentence belongs.
The language property is independent of the font. For example, a Cyrillic character
can possess the language property "German".
The language property is managed internally as a combination of main language
and sublanguage, e.g. "French (Canada)".
Microsoft sometimes uses the designation "Region scheme" for the language
property, whereby this term also covers properties, such as currency, date format,
decimal separators etc.
Effects of the language property
This property is used (evaluated) for the spell checker and for the automatic
keyboard switchover (see Section 3.7: Multi-language Word files).
If you do not wish to use either the spell checker or the automatic keyboard
switchover function, there is generally no need to worry about the language
properties. In this case do not forget to deactivate the automatic keyboard
switchover function.
Saving the language property
Microsoft Word saves this property in Word files (*.doc). If a document is saved as
a text file (*.txt) then this property is lost along with the other text properties.
If you wish to use the language property, it therefore makes sense to use a Word
file to edit the texts and to keep it for subsequent changes. Whenever the editing
reaches a stage where you want to stop you can then save the document as a text
file following the procedure described in Section 2.4 (Saving text files).
