I took another look -- you won't find an option to display this character encoding.  It seemed familiar to me -- so I looked again.  Windows doesn't support this encoding, but MarcEdit's Character conversion tool supports converting from this encoding to UTF8.  This was made about 3/4 years ago at the request of the BNF to help folks working with the obsolete encoding move their data to UTF8.  

So, those seem to be the options.

Subject: [MARCEDIT-L] Processing files encoded in (Unimarc) ISO-5426

Hi,

I have a file in ISO-2709 format (.mrc), encoded in ISO-5426, that I need to process (select some records and remove others) then compile the resulting records to a new ISO-2709 file, keeping the ISO-5426 character encoding.

I have no problem with the selection of records, but I'm unable to find the correct options to break the .mrc file, then make/compile the .mrk file in ISO-5426.

The selection of records is based on fields containing only ASCII characters, so even it all the diacritics looks ugly in the Editor, it's not a problem.

I'm running the last version (6.2.491) under Windows 10 Pro 64 bit.

I was able to successfully do it once, but I'm unable to reproduce it !

Thanks a lot in advance,

--
