    Corrupt characters on invoice

    Hi there,

    We've recently moved Actinic onto a dedicated Linux server from our old shared hosting.

    Since then, we've had trouble with accented characters such as бвд. They all appear corrupted with different characters on the invoice.

    If anyone knows how this can be fixed, that would be great.

    Cheers,
    John

    Have you checked the server encoding?

      The invoices in Actinic are all plain text, aren't they? I don't think there's a common standard for accents/special characters in plain text - not yet anyway. If you html-ed the invoices, then you could use the html codes for each character and make them come out right for all systems and browsers.

        Changing Character Encoding

        Thanks for the tips - I think that I've found the problem now.

        The Apache installation was set to UTF-8 character encoding.

        I've added

        Code:
        AddDefaultCharset iso-8859-1
        to the httpd.conf file, so hopefully it will work. I'll let you know!
