it sounds like we are coming down in favor of the sender injecting the headers.
Of course there is no guarantee that if can rasterize chinese (or whatever)
characters either. BUt it is certainly capable of limiting the sending user's
interaction with it.
I think we should certainly add the requirement that the sending user ID should
be utf8.

I am not sure that mandating all implementations have the font data necessary to
print the thousands and thousands of glyphs accessible using UTF-8 encoding is
practical.

Carl-san
We can use a universal character encoding scheme like UTF-8.
A terminal can send information by UTF-8,
but the receiver could not print the information written in UTF-8
since it needs font data to print.
We can raise the bar that IPP FAX must print all UTF-8.
Regards.
