Folks,
DW CS3 MacOS
10.4.x
I've been receiving short paragraphs of Russian text via e-mail and in MS
Word files that I need on web pages. I just copy-and-paste the text into a new
DW8 web page, publish, and --no problem at all-- I see the exact same text in
my browser. (I can't read Russian, but I can recognize that the two
representations are identical.)
I haven't done anything special in DW, not that I know of. In DW8 Font
Preferences, "Unicode 4.0 UTF-8" is selected.
I just got some Polish text and I tried exactly the same method. No, doesn't
work. The characters that are the same as a American-Latin are rendered
correctly, and the Polish is represented correctly in DW8, but after
publication, in browsers, the Polish diacritics show up ... completely wrong.
I tried two different browsers. No difference.
What can I do to get BOTH Polish and Russian text to show up on web pages, as
simply as possible? Do I have to give up Russian to get Polish? (Not OK! I
need both.) It's perfectly all right for only the major browsers to show the
texts correctly, and to require special preference settings in the browsers if
necessary.
