Step 4—Set charset & SMS length
The Charsets option allows you to send an SMS text by using special Unicode (https://www.utf8-chartable.de/) characters.
First of all, you will have to choose between the available charsets:
You will find the following options:
- CJK – Chinese Japanese Korean (CJK Radicals Supplement, CJK Symbols and Punctuation, CJK Strokes, Enclosed CJK Letters and Months, CJK Compatibility, CJK Unified Ideographs Extension A, CJK Unified Ideographs, CJK Compatibility Ideographs, and CJK Compatibility Forms sets).
- Greek (Greek and Coptic sets).
- Cyrillic.
- Armenian.
- Hebrew.
- Arabic (Arabic, Arabic Supplement, Arabic Presentation Forms-A, and Arabic Presentation Forms-A sets).
- Hangul (Hangul Jamo, Hangul Compatibility Jamo, and Hangul Syllables sets).
- Thai.
- Latin Extended (Latin-1 Supplement, Latin Extended-A, and Latin Extended-B).
Note: by using special characters, the SMS length will reduce to 70 characters.
Once done, you’ll find the option to enable the SMS length, which allows you to extend the single SMS length (default is 160).
