Display of Special Characters (e.g. german umlauts)
Hi,
I remember that I had this problem before, but don't know how to fix.
In this example the German Umlauts are not properly displayed in Batik -
I tested with the latest SVN version.
http://www.carto.net/papers/svg/gui/combobox/index.svg
It works in all other SVG viewers (Opera, Mozilla, ASV) but fails in Batik.
I am pretty sure that all involved files are in UTF-8 No-Bom.
Is there anything I can do to make Batik display the characters ok?
Thank you for your help,
Andreas

I tried to view your example in a few text editors and
they didn't seem to get the umlauts correct either. Do
you know what encoding is being used? Do you know how
the encoding is supposed to be communicated to the viewer?
Also it looks like you have since change the
referenced file...

yes, I know about this third parameter.
But I don't use getURL in this example.

hi andreas,
are you using getURL in this context? i remember that the Batik getURL()
takes a thrid parameter that can be "ANSI" or "UTF-8". and it defaults
(defaulted?) to "ANSI" in Batik. that may be one reason.

This seems to work for me. How do they display, if not properly? What
happens if you specify different fonts?
