Unicode lets Horizon display international characters. When you do a keyword browse search to find a bib record, Horizon properly sorts and sequences the international characters in the list based on the index you choose. (For example, if you choose the Cyrillic index, Horizon sorts the entries according to Russian sorting rules.)
This feature is available on Microsoft Windows NT and Windows 2000 platforms only, as it requires Unicode support available on those platforms to display the characters correctly.
If the characters are Romanized, western European sorting rules apply. If the characters remain in their native language, you choose the index for that language. The sorting rules for that language apply to the sorting and sequencing throughout Horizon. (To purchase additional language indexes, contact your Horizon add-on sales representative.)
To use keyword browse in Unicode, do a standard search, but choose the index that has been set up for the language you want to use.
