language problem in text

[burcin]

Hi all, I put many text in my pages and choose Times New Roman (TUR) for the font option but when I preview the page some turkish characters appear as funny symbols. Does BV support multilanguage text options?

BV does.. your browser may not. It must have that particular font installed for its use. Best to use websafe fonts.

Re: language problem in text

thanks for the quick reply. I have no idea my browser supports which font. what do you suggest for web safe font?

Re: language problem in text

here's a pretty good list...but if you want to use an unusual font you can always save the body of text as an image: click on the text - go to properties

Re: language problem in text

it's not so unusual, şçöıİÖÜğĞ I can write them with my keyboard and can read them here, but when I say preview it looks funny

when I change language options on my browser to Turkish it's cool.

Re: language problem in text

I still have the problem. can somebody help? I have to use ç,ı, ö,ü,İ,ş this kind of characters. when I publish the pages, it looks awful :(
if I change the code to unicode in my browser it's ok. but everybody have different options chosen. they won't change their codes, just close my page instead.

when I publish it as images it looks ok when the background is white. but I put colored templates and put text on them. it doesn't look good when there is background color. you can check it if you like.

there must be something to do with the foreign letters.

Re: language problem in text

thanks people for great support!!!!!!!!
my problem is so simple and tiny that nobody really cares!!!!!!!!!!!!

for people who have the same kind of problem, I FOUND THE ANSWER BY MYSELF... BY TRYING.....AND TRYING.....AND KEEP TRYING!!!!!!!!!!!!

I just right clicked on the page, click on page properties, choose default font as the same that I used (times new roman), I changed the character set to UTF-8. that worked for me.

Hey Burcin;

From Turkey too. What you should do is simply click right on the page then select Page Properties and set the charachter set as

ISO-8859-9 (Turkish)

That's all...

feyza hanım mesajda belirttiğim gibi farklı kodları denedim, UTF-8 yapınca problem kalmadı. türkçe karakterlerle problem yaşayan diğer bir arkadaş bana ulaştı onunla da konuştuk fakat onda UTF-8 işe yaramadı, neden bilmiyorum. kullandığımız browser ayarları farklıydı belki. yine de cevabiniz için teşekkürler, bluevoda ile ilgili burcincavdar********.com 'dan ulaşabilirsiniz.
