Ron,

I'm not aware of any papers, however, I always set NLS_LANG in my
environment to match the character set of my database.

So, I have a database that has WE8ISO8859P1 character set, and I set
NLS_LANG=AMERICAN_AMERICA.WE8ISO8859P1.  I do that In the environment
before running exp or imp.

I am trying to get rid of export and import messages concerning NLS
character and language sets.  

Can anyone point me to a paper that explains which one(s) to use?

Thanks!
Ron
