Special characters when printing Word doc from Lotus Script

I have a code in my application to print some data in word. Somewhere in the code I do this:

gerarSumarioSeger = gerarSumarioSeger + |<p>| + docP.ds_assunto(0) + |</p>|

I assemble the HTML getting the data from the field in the document. Ok, not hard at all. But, if I try to print two of the documents that have in this field the data like in the image

  1. the word is generated with the error in image

  2. enter image description here

    enter image description here

If I remove one of the "çã" in one of the fields the error doesn't occur.

If I put a hidden field with a special character like below the error doesn't occur:

<p style="visibility:hidden;">ã</p>

If I select another document with the content in the field like bellow the error doesn't occur:

Convênio de Cooperação Geral - Sebrae e Ministério do Desenvolvimento Social e Agrário - MDSA

Solution

  • I think you have to add the character set to your html, something like:

    <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8">
