SYMPTOMS
When the character parameter THORN_ICELANDIC_CAPITAL (EBCDIC 0xAE) is sent from the host to the SNA Print Service, using a PDT, the character is always converted to ASCII 0xDE. This happens regardless of what macro THORN_ICELANDIC_CAPITAL is mapped to in the PDF File.



CAUSE
The ASCII codes for THORN_ICELANDIC_CAPITAL and THORN_ICELANDIC_SMALL in the SNA Server character table are incorrect.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in SNA Server versions 3.0, 3.0 SP1, and 3.0 SP2.

This problem was corrected in the latest SNA Server version 3.0 U.S. Service Pack. For information on obtaining this Service Pack, query on the following word in the Microsoft Knowledge Base (without the spaces):
