    it displays junk characters

    is this a gp issue or i have to update service pack ?

    Hi,

    I think that it will not work. I had the same problem within 'Write Letters' in GP for Customers, Vendors,..

    If you use GP Report Writer, then it works.

    SSRS also will work.

    That's good! So, I believe your problem then is you are not saving the template with the correct text encoding.

    1. Open the template

    2. Click the File tab

    3. Click Save As and choose a path to save the document

    4. In the Save As window, click the Tools drop-down (next to the Save button)

    5. Select the Save Options option

    6. In the Word Options window, click Language in the navigation bar

    7. Change the Display language to Arabic

    8. Optional: if you plan on editing the template after it is generated by GP, then also change the Edit Language to Arabic

    9. Save your template

    10. Reimport the template into Microsoft Dynamics GP

    Have you changed your Microsoft Word language settings? Do you have right to left text direction enabled in Word?
