The reason I like Unicode is that , AFASIK, Windows Mobile API only supports wide char. So in Chinese/Janapese/Korean, after uncompressing texts in the PDB files(whose charset may be GB2312/GBK/BIG5/JIS......), I must first convert the text strings into Unicode. If the html file is very large, it may take too many seconds to convert (Multibytetowidechar), too slow. So if the PDB file is encoded in Unicode-16, the resulted file is as small as in GB/BIG5..., while the speed is almost as fast as ASCII. Perfect!
Yes, no plucker viewer support this feature. But I think it is not difficult to modify the open source viewer such as vade mecum.
YOU SAID: (There should be an MIBenum in the document's meta record, but this field is never actually written.)
Plucker Desktop writes the MIBenum in the document's meta record if the original html file has the meta charset information. I tested this.
Sunrise should write it too because it is very important for non english user, especially for asian user.
