![]() ![]() I realize that Acrobat need not provide the functionality I am asking for, but still I view it as a reasonable request. ![]() In fact I do not know a single programming language, although I suppose there must be some, that does not use the characters in the ASCII character set, and usually the first 128 characters in that set, as the representation of the valid characters to be used in the constructs of that programming language. That's all ! I do not think that is an unreasonable request considering the huge number of programmers who have, and continue to have, an interest in the ASCII character set as the text they use in their programming langauage. I then suggest that there should be a way that I can view using Acrobat what that character is in the ASCII character set. When I copy the character and paste it to my text editor, and the character turns out not to be the ASCII tilde character, naturally I am a bit upset and curious why that is so. If I see some characters and one of those characters is a tilde character I am seeing, then I naturally suppose that this character correspnds to the tilde character in the ASCII ( or maybe UTF8 where the ASCII characters form the first 256 ) character set. What determines the characters I am seeing ? There must be some underlying representation which determines a character. There is text which I am seeing in a PDF document. ![]()
