AutoFORM LaserNet adds Unicode - double byte (multi byte) multiple language printing capability to
virtually any computer system. This means that you can accurately print & display on screen Asian,
Cyrillic and Middle Eastern languages as well as all European languages.
Incorporating AutoFORM LaserNet Unicode offers significant cost and processing advantages over the
use of legacy character sets. Unicode allows print streams with multiple languages to be transmitted
across platforms, IT applications, networks, web, or email without corruption or having to re-engineer
your application.

What is Unicode?
Unicode is described as the alphabet of all alphabets, with an ever expanding 65,000 characters in letters, symbols,
phonetics and some ideographic characters. Unlike ASCII which uses seven bit, Unicode uses 16 bit, which enables
the more pictorial characters to be presented. This means that virtually all languages to be processed can be
printed or shown on screen, including Japanese, Chinese, Russian, Arabic, Turkish, Greek and many more.

character sets or Unicode. Unicode technology can be incorporated into virtually any IT application and is already
