Language Encoding for Buy Gift Certificate Buttons
Websites that use PayPal in different parts of the world work with different languages and
different character encoding schemes. PayPal refers collectively to these differences as
language encoding. You can specify the language and character encoding of the HTML code
for Buy Gift Certificate buttons in the following ways:
z For all of your Buy Gift Certificates buttons – use the Language Encoding settings in your
account profile
z For individual Buy Gift Certificate buttons – use the charset HTML variable in the
HTML button code.
For more information on language encoding, see the Merchant Setup and Administration
Guide.
