Re: Unavailable Character Encodings

FrameMaker doesn't really support Unicode other than for
XML passthrough. Imported Word documents have characters
translated into FrameMaker's character set. Characters in
Word or RTF format that are outside of FrameMaker's character
set (for example, Hebrew and Arabic) are not imported.
