Thank you and I have notified our admin and they plan on upgrading this evening.
Although I am wondering what would be the issue, just in case the upgrade does not solve it and if it has something to do with my computer?

Thanks.
PSPP 1.4.1 is very old. This problem is likely fixed in the newest releases.

What version and OS is this? What does "SHOW SYSTEM." report?

Thank you for your response. I am trying to get rid of these characters—box with circles.
I tried UTF-8 and ASCII, but I am accessing the software remotely due to security reasons for our hospital and the application is stored in an external server.

Can you say more about the issue? Are you responding to some message from PSPP? Can you provide the message?

Hello,
I was informed that I need to change my output to ASCII for normal characters.
I tried many ways in the command line, but I was not successful
Can someone help me?
