Not sure if this is the charset that PDFs use: http://www.microsoft.com/globaldev/reference/sbcs/1252.htm Aka. CP-1252 - Chris

Hi, If you want the Euro char, simply type it as any other characters. For example, write/binary pdf-file: %euro.pdf layout-pdf [[textbox ["Hi, I am the ? char !"]]] browse pdf-file Note : if you don't have the Euro symbol on your keyboard, you may use ALT+0+1+2+8.

Another option is to use 'dehex -
>> dehex "Hi, I am the %80 char!"

There was a version of the PDF Maker with a bug in the font metric informations that prevented the display of the euro character. So, first of all be sure to have the latest version. (I can send it to you if you want.) After that, the PDF Maker currently uses the WinAnsiEncoding for the strings, so unless you're on the Mac you just need to type the euro character (€). If you're on the Mac, and the euro char is encoded differently for you, then you just need to type it as ^(80) .

^(80) works I'm using Linux Red Hat and have a keyboard layout with € (EURO) but it doesn't show when I type it in the Console or View apps. Anybody knows how to fix this ? I assume it's related to my other problem of not being able to type accented chars in View/Linux ( but can do in View/Windows ). Thanks everybody for helping me out !

It's a Linux issue. You should be able to get to the euro char by fiddling around with modmap. (I wonder, how come they didn't fix their keymaps yet; or maybe the euro char is hidden somewhere else?)
