Detailed Description

A field containing an ASCII string (sequence of characters). Inventor does not support non-ASCII strings.

SoSFStrings are written to file as a sequence of ASCII characters in double quotes (optional if the string doesn't contain any whitespace). Any characters (including newlines) may appear within the quotes. To include a double quote character within the string, precede it with a backslash. For example: 

Testing
"One, Two, Three"
"He said, \"Immel did it!\""

are all valid strings.
