Importing and Exporting
Smart Characters automatically imports and optionally exports documents
compatible with the major Chinese and Japanese native word processing
standards. Imported documents are converted into the Smart Characters format,
including
concordance(D-
-
2)
to the
Combined(4-
9)
symbol set(D-
-
7).
Smart Characters text can be likewise saved as a native format for use by
native word processors or text editors (however, all annotations are discarded
by the native format).
Document conversions are automatically invoked as needed by the
File Open(3-
1)
and the
File Save As(3-
3)
commands.
Interpreting Native Formats
For special purposes, the addition of optional fonts gives Smart Characters the
ability to interpret native text without conversion. This is
handy when browsing large amounts of native text in which the conversion step
would slow things down. You can save, print or fax the file, but you can do
only simple editing (e.g., cut & paste, formatting, but not text entry)
unless you have installed native code space dictionaries. The addition of
native code space dictionaries provide full text editing in the native format.

Disk and Document Formats
There are various formats that someone may wish to convert documents between.
These formats depend upon the software and machine used to make the original
document.
