You can use HELP SESSION to view the current export widths for the session. Based on the rule set shown in About Export Width Rules, and an EXPECTED user default export width, the request returns output similar to the following:

where:
| Value | Description |
|---|---|
| Export Latin 2 | Reports the export width value for each server character data type for the session character set (UTF8). A 0 value means that character conversion between server and client character sets is not possible, for example, from Graphic (double-byte) to ASCII (single-byte).
|
| Export Unicode 3 | |
| Export Unicode Adjust 0 | |
| Export KanjiSJIS 1 | |
| Export Graphic 3 | |
| Export Width Rules 2313 | The export width values for converting the session character set to Latin, Unicode, KanjiSJIS, and Graphic. |
No export width is reported for the Kanji1 character data type because the export width is always 1.
