Chapter 4: Encoding Methods
Korean-enabled OS and receive an ISO-2022-KR–encoded le, it may be dicult to de-
termine whether code conversion is necessary. Even well-formed ISO-2022-KR–encoded
les may not display on a Korean-enabled OS, because it may instead expect data to be
encoded according to EUC-KR or Johab encodings.
Consider the following past scenario. You were using a Japanese-capable operating sys-
tem, such as Mac OS-J. You received two les. One le was EUC-JP–encoded, and the
other was ISO-2022-JP–encoded, but it was damaged because its escape characters had
been stripped away. Both les displayed equally un-well when opened in a typical text
editor or other text-processing application. Until the EUC-JP–encoded le was converted
to Shi-JIS encoding, it could not be used on Mac OS-J. Likewise, until the ISO-2022-JP–
encoded le was repaired and converted to Shi-JIS encoding, it also could not be used
on Mac OS-J.
e subject of handling damaged or otherwise unreadable CJKV text, which is closely
related to code conversion, is covered in the next section.
Repairing Damaged or Unreadable CJKV Text
CJKV text les can be damaged in dierent ways depending on which encoding was used
in the le. ISO-2022–encoded text is usually damaged by unfriendly email clients (and
news readers) that remove control characters, including the all-important escape and shi
characters. ...
