Remarks

The key words in the following table are supported.

DBCS Keywords	SBCS Keywords	Description
Ａ	A	Upper case alphabet (A-Z).
ａ	a	Lower case alphabet (a-z).
Ｋ	K	Katakana.
９	9	Numbers (0-9).
＃	#	Numbers and number related symbols (0-9, +-$%\,.).
＠	@	Symbols.
Ｚ	H	All characters without Space.
Ｊ		Hiragana.
Ｎ	N	Only large Katakana.
Ｇ		Only large Hiragana
Ｔ		Only allow surrogate characters.
Ｄ		All characters except surrogates.
Ｓ	S	Space.
	^	Any character not included in the specified format.
	\	Escape character.

For example, if you set the format to 'Ａ', then users can only input the upper case DBCS alphabet. If they input SBCS 'k', then it automatically converts to DBCS 'Ｋ' if autoConvert is set to true, but if autoConvert is false, they can't input 'k' at all.
