WorkFlows Java Client

In the WorkFlows Java Client, insert diacritics, special characters, super/subscripts and Greek letters by choosing them from the Symbol Table, which can be found in the Tools menu. Make sure you have the "Customize font" setting set to Arial Unicode MS so that all the characters/symbols display properly. To choose which set of characters/symbols you want to display, click on the drop down menu arrow to the right of the "Select code set" box and make the appropriate selection. Mousing over a symbol will display pop-up text with the symbol name. Click on the symbol you want to enter. It will be inserted where your cursor is located in the record.
