<p>HPSF's codepage support is only as good as the character encoding
support of the Java Virtual Machine (JVM) the application runs on. If
HPSF encounters a codepage number it assumes that the JVM has a character
encoding with a corresponding name. For example, if the codepage is 1252,
HPSF uses the character encoding "cp1252" to read or write strings. If
the JVM does not have that character encoding installed or if the

versions since 1.4. However, under J2SE 1.3 or lower you are out of
luck. You should install a newer J2SE version to process codepages with
