hi,
the tool Formscript is working fine, and I can write in Arabic language correctly, but when I return to what I wrote I see incorrect letters like this: عÙ�Ù�Ù�Ø© Ù�رارة for: عملية مرارة

hey,
Is this within OpenEMR? Or are you looking at the raw files?

hi,
In the report.php script, try the following (basically removing the ucwords() function call):

Change:
$key=ucwords(str_replace("_"," ",$key));

To:
$key=str_replace("_"," ",$key);

let us know if if works,

hey,

Tested arabic characters on ubuntu and worked fine with no issues. Haven’t had chance to try on windows. Guessing the output files are not UTF-8 encoded, but not sure. If possible, send me you form files (in a zip package) including the original file that formscript.pl built the forms from. (send them to brady@sparmy.com).

Also, just so you know, there’s another new mechanism to create custom based forms within OpenEMR:

thank you brady,
I sand the form files to you by email.

hey,

thanks for sending your files, helped me localize the bug. Here’s a new formscript.pl script that fixes this (among other things ; see bug tracker artifact 2988809 for more details):
http://openemr.cvs.sourceforge.net/viewvc/*checkout*/openemr/openemr/contrib/forms/formmaker/formscript.pl?revision=1.18

let me know if nay problems with this script; if test well, then will include in next 3.2 patch.
