The one character they list, they say it is 21884. Is that decimal or hex?
- '21884' is a code in "ISO/IEC 10646" for a Universal Coded Character.
- I believe it is just a code.
- You may check with IBM wet site about doc "Traditional Chinese Graphic Character Set CP00835.pdf) as in the attachments.
Also, I need a list of all the characters that are not working.
- Most of coded list in "ISO/IEC 10646" over '20000'
- Ref: http://unicode.org/L2/L2010/10038-fcd10646-main.pdf
- Or you may search from web "ISO/IEC 10646"
- Please also check the links in the use case
Are they converting them to an EBCDIC CCSID and that is not displaying on a 5250 emulator?
- I am not sure it convert or not in emulator
- What we do is
> In PC with Win 10 (Tranditional Chinese), using "ACS
> Input the character "㜜" [UTF-16, Hex 37 1C], it displays fine as "㜜"
> Input the character "𡢄" [UTF-16, Hex D8 46 DC84], just display a square
If its an emulator, which emulator are they using?
More about emulator "ACS" using

The CAAC has reviewed this requirement and recommends that IBM view this as a high priority requirement that is important to be addressed. UDT is a critical component to the finance industry and needs to be fully supported.
Background: The COMMON Americas Advisory Council (CAAC) members have a broad range of experience in working with small and medium-sized IBM i customers. CAAC has a key role in working with IBM i development to help assess the value and impact of individual RFEs on the broader IBM i community, and has therefore reviewed your RFE.
