Character set support
Internationalization - The entire application is
internationalized. To find out more about Aqua Data Studio’s
Internationalization features, click
here.
Aqua Data Studio is Unicode compliant and may display any
character set. Although Aqua Data Studio has the capabilities to
display any character set, a limitation in your OS fonts, database
character set support or a missconfiguration of either may prevent
ADS from displaying characters correctly.
Configured Fonts - If your OS does not have
Unicode capable fonts you will need to configure ADS to use fonts
which support the character set you want to display. You may
configure the fonts used by ADS in
File->Options->[General:Appearance]. Here you may specify the
fonts used for the application, SQL editor, text results and grid
results.
Example fonts which support multi-byte character sets include:
- Traditional Chinese: MingLiU
- Simplified Chinese: MS Song or MS Hei
- Japanese: MS Gothic
- Korean: GulimChe
Database Character set - Configuring your
database server and database with the correct character set support
is important in storing and retrieving your data correctly. If you
need to store data in multiple character sets it is important to
configure your database with a Unicode character set. Otherwise, it
is important to configure your database with the character set
which supports the data in the correct character encoding.
If you have ADS configured with the correct fonts, and your
database is configured with support for the character sets you are
storing, then ADS should have no problems displaying your data
correctly. Please review the documentation from your database
vendor on database character set support.
