Solve : My replies to emails are being seen by recipient as written in Greek language? |
|
Answer» I use att yahoo.com for email. Lately my replies to emails sent to me are coming back to the sender in the Greek language. It seems to be a perfect translation of the english to greek. I type it at my end and it comes out in english, but the recipient sees the greek. Apple computers seem not to be affected, except when they push the "PRINT" ICON on their mail page. If they use File-Print function it works ok. I checked Encoding and my mail is using Automatic-default. My default print is New Times Roman.This has to be a setting on the recepients side mate. Your computer cannot translate perfect English to Greek. It's impossible. Quote from: Mulreay on March 28, 2009, 07:59:05 PM This has to be a setting on the recepients side mate. Your computer cannot translate perfect English to Greek. It's impossible. Or even English to perfect Greek. Examples or it ain't so. Quote from: bushwacker on March 28, 2009, 05:06:40 PM It seems to be a perfect translation of the english to greek. You do know this? From a Greek speaker? Someone fluent ENOUGH in both languages to know a "perfect" translation when they see it? Quote from: bushwacker on March 29, 2009, 02:16:18 PM yes but what is my problem? I am doubtful that what you describe is really happening. I wonder if you are trolling teasing us? Please give examples. I already ASKED this. 1. Ask somebody to send you an email. 2. Reply to it. 3. Ask them to forward the reply back to you if it arrived in Greek. 4. Copy and paste your English reply and the Greek one here. Well, maybe you should call your ISP. Or somebody is pulling your leg. What computer do lyou have? Is it the surviving Hall-2001?when I try to print from Word for DOS using the HP laserjet driver to my epson printer, I get greek. Unless I install the font cartridge- if I do that I get a Lagos variant of a sub-african pygmy tribes language. Of course they haven't a written form for their language so the printer is actually making the sound via various beep tones. Overseas I end up with english, wonder if this is a similar scenario.

Quote from: Geek-9pm on March 29, 2009, 02:50:36 PM Need to update your font cart. err... not ALL of overseas. Greece is overseas too It depends which side the sea you're on. Quote from: SuperDave on March 29, 2009, 06:44:11 PM It depends which side the sea you're on. that too. To quote a old computer book- "when I try to print all I get is greek" if trying to print something to your printer results in greek, (or, for overseas readers, if trying to print something to your printer results in english)... |
