Sorry, I should have been a little clearer.  I used the SAS Universal view on Windows because I know unix windowing isn't the best for supporting unicode.  Is that also expected not to work?   When you say SAS with Unicode support you mean the executable thats named sas_u8 right?   Would the ODS output also be dependent on creating it from a SAS with Unicode support session?   Can you give an example procedure that should ensure a utf8 compatible font is used for PDF output? I think this would be sufficient for my validation purposes. ... View more

Where can I visually verify Unicode data?

Hello,   I have created a SAS dataset with a value that contains a UTF8 encoded string.  How can I verify that the data has come across correctly?  I have tried to open the SAS dataset in the SAS Universal Viewer Release 9.4 - SEP 2014   but it only renders the squares that indicate the character is missing in the current font.   I am using the Universal Viewer because our licensed version on linux does not display unicode. All I can see is the strange garbled sequence of accented A's and such.   If there is no way to visually inspect that the unicode data is correctly encoded is there any procedure you would recommend to validate the data has come across correctly?   Thanks, sJared ...
