New Features

This section lists enhancements that have been added to the product in Kofax Communication

Server 9.2.0.

Unicode Support

Kofax Communication Server (KCS) now supports Unicode.

Kofax Communication Server did support non-English characters before; however, it was

required that KCS be configured to a particular code page / character set. While the code

page concept allows KCS to work with a variety of character sets, it has the fundamental

drawback that it can't work with all character sets at the same time. For example, having both

Russian and Japanese characters in one message was not possible.

With this release, Kofax Communication Server can be configured to use Unicode (UTF-8) to

store and process message data. Administrators and users can display these messages in both

client applications, TCfW Communication Server Client and TC/Web client.

Any non-Unicode message received by KCS is converted to Unicode and then stored in KCS.

Messages sent via the following TC/LINK types can be sent in Unicode:
▪ Link types base on SMTP protocol (SM, OC, SDD, MFP, MX7, SC7)
▪ TC/LINK-LN
▪ TC/LINK-FI (file formats TOM, XML)
▪ TC/LINK-MD and TC/LINK-WM
▪ TC/LINK-MQ (file formats TOM, XML)

Messages sent via other TC/LINK types continue to use the local character set on the interface

of the remote system.

Unicode Installation Guide, version 9.02.00 edition 2
