As I said, we are already doing this. But even then, this is not
particularly user friendly, and I was hoping there could be a better
(as in, less error prone) way to present this to the user.
One way is to make the user aware of the limitation at the time of the
text input; the other could be, if viable, to restrict the text input
in these particular labels, so that only the allowed code page
characters can be entered. Or a combination of both.
Cheers,
