GOAL:
Statement on double-byte (DBE) support for Report Builder
FIX:
This solution is a statement of support policy for Report Builder in regard to double-byte (DBE) functionality.
Progress Software's development groups for Report Builder and DBE have stated that as of Version 9 and earlier, Report Builder does not support double-byte (kanji fonts.) Report Builder was not engineered with any consideration for double-byte, nor was quality assurance carried out for DBE capabilities.
While this does not mean that there will be problems whenever kanji fonts are used with Report Builder, it does mean that Progress Technical Support will be unable to provide assistance when problems with DBE are encountered.
If customers wish to develop their reports only on tools that officially support double-byte, they should speak to their sales representatives to find a solution that best fits their needs.
