T61 Syntax

The administration interface supports only characters smaller than 0x7e for names. The XDS application programming interface (API) supports the full T61 range as indicated in the preceding table.

Some T61 alphabetical characters have a 2-byte representation. For example, a lowercase letter a with an acute accent is represented by 0xc2 (the code for an acute accent) followed by 0x61 (the code for a lowercase a).

Only certain combinations of diacritical characters and basic letters are valid. They are shown in the following table


Combinations of Diacritical Characters and Basic Letters

The nonspacing underline (code 0xcc) must be followed by a Latin alphabetical character; that is, a basic letter (a to z or A to Z), or a valid diacritical combination.
