Subject: re: degree symbol in OPAC
X-Incognito-SN: 100
X-Incognito-Format: VERSION=1.60e ENCRYPTED=NO
 
 
 
Our library system is Innopac Interface Inc. We have the same problem using
the superscript zero in that it displays an additional zero. It then becomes
very hard to read the coordinates correctly especially for our patrons using
the OPAC. What we decided for the moment, is to used the ASCII characters for
the degree symbol, e.g. ALT 248. It prints as a degree sign and this works
fine for us.
